9. 2. Project Kushal: vocational education
as part of secondary school
Sakal is working with local NGO partner for its skill Development program
which integrates job and life skills training in existing school curricula to make
high school education more practical and relevant. The multi-skill vocational
education program complements the existing school curriculum with
vocational education to help the students learn better. It provides students
with hands-on experience in skills such as electrical wiring, welding, carpentry,
plumbing, gardening, basic health and hygiene, agriculture etc. The program
is delivered by local trade practitioners (carpenters, plumbers, electricians,
etc.) who teach their trade at high schools.
Project Kushal (meaning expert) is a four year multi-skill job and life skills
training program, integrating vocational training with secondary and higher
secondary school curriculum and introducing school students to the “World of
Work” during grades 8th to 12th.

10. Curriculum: This multi-skill program covers four Sections:
 Basic Engineering (welding, carpentry, fabrication, plumbing etc.)
 Energy and Environment (Electrical wiring, solar energy, bio-gas)
 Home and Health (nutrition, hygiene, basic health care) / Food
Processing Techniques
 Horticulture, Nursery and Agriculture Techniques
Trainers: Program delivered via local micro-entrepreneurs
who are trained to provide multi-skill training.
Gender Neutral: Program does not distinguish between
boys and girls. Everyone undergoes same curriculum.

11. Key Performance Indicators
 Increase in enrollment and attendance in the class : 5%
 Reduction in dropout rate: 5%
 Average revenue generated through student led projects
per school: INR 20,000 per school over four years
 Number of youth choosing vocational education stream
post 10th grade : 15% of the class
 Number of students starting their own business within
three years of working : 20% of the class

12. B. Health Area
1. Health Camps
Sakal Social Foundation organizes various ( Eye check-up, Dental, ENT,
Physiotherapy ) health check-up camps for under privileged communities in
tribal, rural and urban areas for last three years specially focussing on the
areas that do not have motorable roads.
Welfare via well being for all : When it comes to development and social
welfare ,the first issue that automatically takes centre stage is that of family
and individual health of citizens. A healthy society is a wealthy society indeed
and SSF truly believes in promoting the cause of well being through its
various initiatives meant for all sections including rural and urban women ,
children , working professionals in the police and IT sectors School children ,
parents , teachers etc.

13. Current Initiatives-
Check-up for School Children :- ======================
Nearly 6,000 school children from 500 schools , their parents
and other school staff benefited from a mega health check-up drive that
was conducted all over Maharashtra.
Fitness for Police Personnel :- =======================
When it comes to health , the most ignored sections of the society are
the police personnel owing to their busy schedules . To combat fatigue ,
less fitness , eye dental , ENT and other problems among the police
force , SSF carried out health check-up camps for them in
various cities like Aurangabad , Kolhapur , Nashik and pune.
Campaigns for Tribals : -
================== For the under privileged and backward
sections of the society like the kanjar Bhat community , Thakkars
, Mahadev koli and other tribals of rural Maharashtra , who are prone
to malnutrition and anaemia , health awareness workshops , medical
camps and specialised check-ups like eye, cancer, dental etc. were held
at community setups

14. Process of Conducting
Health Camps-
 Identification of location based on
general/specialised Health camp need
 Tie-up with medical facilities available in the area
and local administration
 Approval from Govt. Health Department for
conducting a health camp
 Procurement of medicines as per the health
indicators of that area
 Community mobilisation for participation in the
health camp
 Set up of specialised health equipments

15. 2. Mobile Medical Vans
Mobile Medical Van (MMV) is a national level multi- centric project
initiated by Sakal Social Foundation (SSF) with an objective of
providing a comprehensive range of health care services to rural community
in remote areas and semi urban slums through an equipped mobile medical
van. The programme is based on innovative concept of “Community
Centric Sustainable Health Delivery Model”.
The programme focuses on providing wide range of Promotive, Preventive
and Curative health services to the beneficiaries. The model envisages an
efficient and cost effective health delivery system for the community. SSF’s
vision through MMV is to provide affordable & advance health care facilities
at the door steps of the underprivileged communities.
In the coming years we plan to launch 50 such Mobile Medical Vans
in Maharashtra, so as to benefit more than 1 Crore of the rural
people out of the current 6 Crore rural population.
 Each MMV reaches out to 25000 population every month.
 Each MMV provides health benefit to around 2000 patients per month
 MMV would be reaching in small towns and remote villages of Maharastra
every month.
These Mobile Medical vans will be planned to benefit in 50 districts
of Maharashtra as per need identified.

18. C. Environment:
Sarva Jal Abhiyan (Water for All)-
Sakal has adopted 400 villages across Maharashtra for
Jalyukt Shivar Abhiyan and done following work

water survey and action plan for their Jalyukt Shivar
Abhiyan.

19. Vision
 To deliver a “Water for All” by 2019 by ensuring the adequate and
consistent supply of required water
 Increasing surface water capture (to 36.35% from 32.00%)
 Increasing ground water levels (to 36.32 BCM from 33.95 BCM)
 Increasing irrigation potential to 58 Lakh Ha from 48.25 Lakh
Ha
 Providing 135 LPCD for 91 additional ULBs
 Enhance water supply to rural by the rejuvenation of all non-
functioning rural water supply schemes
 Increasing sustainability of water by ensuring recycling of
water (30% for domestic, 20% for industry)
 Increasing agriculture water efficiency by 50% (24Mm3/lakh MT
from 47.9Mm3/lakh MT
Preliminary strategies
◦ Increase efficiency of delivery in 3 levels – water sources, supply
and water usage
◦ Aim to identify replicable models to be scaled up across the state of
Maharashtra
