Introduction

Currently youth in India, especially in the under -developed and rural and tribal regions, are particularly vulnerable to being recruited by many multinational companies, corporate groups. According to a report by Formation Awareness and Community Empowerment Society on

There is high unemployment and the great majority of the youth have little knowledge about or skills in leadership development, peace/conflict resolution, life skills and local development issues and challenges to guide them towards productive and non-violent activities.

Under -Life Skill training Project we intends to discuss about 5 basic elements. Those are communication, self-awareness, Collaboration- team work, Critical thinking, decision making.
