The DSF Programme contributes to organisations that are for-profit, not-for–profit as well as public and private enterprises. They train students to be efficient and competent frontline staff, who are able to contribute and strengthen the field operation capacity of an enterprise. The course participants go through 20 modules and are required to take up at least two leadership activities in their communities to help build their problem-solving capacity and improve confidence and public presentation skills.

The DeshpandeSusandhi Fellowship Programme trains local youth from rural backgrounds and equips them with these valuable skills. They learn to communicate, take on leadership roles, be a part of management processes and understand core concepts needed to run enterprises and build a lasting relationships with clients.
