UNNATI is deeply committed to the principles of the local-to-local pillar, which serves as the foundation of our values and principles, namely, creating enriched and robust economic empowerment for women. Shipshiksha is intended to help women-led and other local businesses grow and develop by providing adequate education and capacity-building programmes in entrepreneurship development, leadership, financial literacy, and a variety of other soft skill training that will accelerate their performance.

UNNATI firmly believes that investing in the skills and resources of local entrepreneurs can help create a more resilient and sustainable economy. Through Shipshiksha, we provide a range of workshops, training programmes, and mentorship opportunities in key areas of any business cycle, which are marketing, financial management, e-commerce, and digital literacy, to empower local entrepreneurs with the knowledge and tools they need to succeed in the global marketplace.

To this end, we work closely with local organisations, specialists, institutions, governments, and businesses to ensure that our programmes are tailored to the specific needs of each community we serve. By placing a strong emphasis on the upscaling of MSMEs and traditional industries, UNNATI aims to make a positive impact on the national economy and foster a culture of entrepreneurship and innovation.
