The recently concluded four-month BBSHRRDB project, in collaboration with IoBM, witnessed 280 students earning their diplomas. This initiative holds the promise of transforming these students into knowledgeable individuals, budding entrepreneurs, and successful job creators. The graduating students showcased their viable business ideas at the Final Symposium for Batch XV of the BBSHRRDB program at IoBM.
The BBSHRRDB project at IoBM not only empowers over 280 students to become entrepreneurs but also aligns closely with several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). By fostering skills in entrepreneurship, the initiative supports SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, promoting sustainable economic growth and job creation. Furthermore, the project’s commitment to inclusive education resonates with SDG 4: Quality Education, ensuring access to lifelong learning opportunities. This approach cultivates a culture of innovation and inclusivity, vital for addressing global challenges such as poverty, inequality, and climate change, thereby contributing to SDG 1: No Poverty, SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities, and SDG 13: Climate Action. Ultimately, the project exemplifies how higher education institutions can play a transformative role in achieving the SDGs and building resilient communities.
