One such successful project was a Joint Initiative of British Gas, Gujarat Gas Co. Ltd and ICECD on training the youth of urban slums in Ahmedabad, Ankleshwar and Bharuch for self-employment. Various developmental initiatives were deployed to create new jobs and raise productivity and income of these youth, who earlier depended only on the seasonal income but now earn Rs.3000-5000 every month. The second project looked at creating jobs for youth in the command area of Gujarat Gas, by training youth to learn technical skills of fitting 3 and 4 wheelers with CNG kits under a well designed 3 month course. Over 200 youth have been trained in 3 years. |

| ICECD – TATA CHEMICALS LTD. |
ICECD in association with Tata Chemicals and their CSR arm TCSRD implemented a project for economic rehabilitation of their ex-employees at Mithapur. More than 2,000 men and women were trained and employed in selected skills, or were self-employed through micro entrepreneurship development, thereby improving their income and quality of life, over three years. The project is now operational on a self-sustained system with local team.

A similar initiative was also undertaken with TCL/TCSRD in their second location at Babrala, UP, where the target group was the land losers who were offered the same avenues of employment and self employment. |

In a very unique manner, ICECD is partnering with CAIRN in implementing alround initiatives for Community development, SME development, Vendor development and Safety training. In a 3 year project aimed at covering over 12000 clients from the community/SMEs, the land losers happen to be a focus group. The IFC/World bank are keenly watching this unique model being developed by the ICECD team, and replication is already under consideration. |
