Learners enrolled: 190

ABOUT THE COURSE:
Entrepreneurship raises the general standard of living, facilitates access to goods and services, and fosters economic progress. By providing services to underprivileged areas and creating environmentally friendly products, many entrepreneurs also positively impact their communities and enhance their well-being. It indicates that tribal people themselves view entrepreneurship as a means of reestablishing families and communities as well as taking part in the process of reviving the country's economy, as opposed to believing that economic growth is the responsibility of the government.
