Taking a giant stride in its commitment to community support by empowering the youth of the society, Honda India Foundation (HIF) along with the Mizoram Youth Commission (MYC) and Visan Foundation launched “Project Buniyaad – Aathmanirbharta Ka Aadhar” that aims at providing employment to the unemployed youth from the marginal sections of the society.
The Hon’ble Chief Minister, Shri Pu Lalduhoma, said, “With the support of the Honda India Foundation and its implementing agency, the Visan Foundation, we are marking yet another milestone in our journey of developing and empowering our young people. This partnership is not just a testament to our collective determination to uplift the youth, but also a symbol of our commitment to equipping them with skills that will pave the way for a successful future.”
Project Buniyaad was first launched in February 2024 with the vision of uplifting and empowering unemployed youth from marginalized communities by providing them with the necessary skills for employment in the hospitality sector. Since its inception, the project has successfully trained and placed over 500 youth in national priority regions, contributing to the development of a skilled workforce that supports both regional and national economic growth. The project aims to train 1000 plus youth in the North-Eastern states and the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
