Skills development
Skills development extends beyond vocational training: it unlocks latent physical, mental and intellectual potential within individuals. The Kavita and Vinod Khanna Foundation considers skills as fundamental for a rewarding life—boosting societal contributions, nurturing mental well-being, and empowering individuals across diverse life paths.
Holistic Youth Empowerment
Deeply committed to the progress of today’s youth, KVKF emphasizes the importance of not just technical skill development centres but also, crucially, the nurturing of emotional and mental resilience required for young people to prosper. The foundation teaches the youth skills that enable them to be centred, focused, and prepared to confront any challenge with confidence.
