Capacity Development

The key to breaking the cycle of poverty lies in empowering individuals with the proper skills, knowledge, and resources they need to become self-reliant and resilient. With the help of capacity development programs, individuals from underprivileged communities can become self-reliant and financially stable by building skills and achieving sustainable economic growth through entrepreneurship.

At Enroute Foundation, by acknowledging the urgency of the capacity development program in Bangladesh, we design programs and workshops covering essential topics like financial literacy, business planning, and market navigation to transform individuals from lower-income tiers into successful small business entrepreneurs and empower them with sustainable economic growth within their communities.

An Approach to Workforce Development

Capacity development is a strategic approach that aims at empowering rural and underprivileged communities while focusing on women and disabled individuals to build their skills through the development of professional and leadership skills.

The initiative involves comprehensive training programs that teach the skills needed for conducting trades and entrepreneurial activities. By attending tailored entrepreneurship training and technical assistance, these individuals can develop and market their businesses and become the breadwinners for their families.

By identifying individuals with the drive to improve their circumstances but lacking the necessary resources or knowledge, capacity development programs can be initiated. Such targeted workshops are designed with practical skills and real-world applications to ensure every participant can implement the learnings successfully in practical scenarios.

Capacitating Diverse Communities

Enroute Foundation aims to enhance the quality of life for those living in compromised conditions through capacitating communities. Empowering these communities with sustainable income in their local communities is the core objective of our capacity development initiatives. For many decades, people from rural communities have migrated to urban areas for livelihood, leaving their comfort behind at home. We capacitate these communities by introducing sustainable earning sources in their local areas.

We introduce machinery to local entrepreneurs that transform molds made from areca leaves into durable, eco-friendly tableware. The demand for biodegradable utensils in local and global markets is soaring, turning this business model into a profitable one. Apart from integrating technology into local businesses, we are fostering a model of economic growth.

We provide the technical skills needed to operate such businesses and the financial knowledge required to maintain sustainable growth. Through mentoring and networking, we create a supportive ecosystem for trading the final products locally and beyond.
