The document outlines Project Gazaab Nainital 2015. The ultimate objective is empowerment and sustainability. Gazaab provides social entrepreneurship training, practical skills application, and seed funding to kickstart businesses. Participants are 18-30 years old with high education, moderate income, and entrepreneurial spirit. Training includes pre-project preparation, classes, simulations, and business pitches. Some successful businesses included an incinerator, sports academy, and tuition center. Post-project support includes funds disbursement and continued mentoring. Looking ahead, Gazaab will focus on skill development, sustainable village programs, and larger outreach to meet changing community needs.
