Poverty Alleviation and prevention through Enterprise Development in India.

‘ Poverty Alleviation’ shall be attempted, in the short term, by     making enterprise information and training available and accessible to     the target group, of poor and disadvantaged, through the intervention     and use of mass media and field programmes. The effort will be such     that the target group can reinforce and build on their own     development capacities and consequently overcome their economic     poverty.

‘Poverty Prevention’ shall be attempted, in the long term, through     promoting enterprise culture, by complementing the school curriculum     with Enterprise Education. This would help school children, when they     leave school, to seek options of alternative economic income     generating activities.
