The AI-powered ‘Saksham Skill Survey’ was launched in Mumbai, specifically in the H-West ward covering areas such as Bandra, Khar, and Santacruz. The initiative aims to assess the education levels, skills, and employment potential of youth aged between 18 and 40 years. Around 55,000 households will be covered through door-to-door enumeration. The project intends to train at least 15,000 individuals and help about 5,000 achieve self-reliance through employment or entrepreneurship. Conducted by Sapio Analytics, the survey collects data on educational qualifications, skills, and training needs, and uses artificial intelligence to develop a decentralised workforce intelligence model.
