They have also launched a project called Kabil, aimed at providing vocational and hard-skill training to underprivileged sections of society. Since unemployment remains a global issue and available jobs cannot meet the growing demand, Kabil seeks to empower people with skills that help them become self-reliant and earn a sustainable livelihood, he added.
