    Brief description of the program : The overall aim of the action is to secure sustainable livelihoods and protect the social and economic rights of vulnerable people dependent on the informal economy in 32 cities and 18 districts across 15 states of India. This has been sought to be achieved through the three integrated strands of the action’s intervention strategy. The first strand seeks to increase awareness of socio-economic rights and entitlements to decent work and mobilize people dependent on the informal economy to claim those rights; the second seeks to enable young men and women to gain life skills and vocational skills, improve their access to decent work opportunities and increased incomes. The third strand is aimed at developing an understanding of the context, the history and practice of policies related to people working in the informal sector both within India and internationally in order to better frame, analyse, monitor and implement them. The aim of this 4 year action was to reach 600,000+ marginalised people in rural and urban areas dependent on the informal economy and empower them to access social protection. The action also aims to have 23,000 youth and women gain access to basic skills and vocational and technical skills training to enable them to improve livelihoods, and have increased decent work opportunities.
