AN INITIATIVE TOWARDS ATMANIRBHAR BHARAT

IGNOU has more than 3.0 million students enrolled for different programme from all over the country. It has been noticed that a large number of IGNOU students have innovative and entrepreneurial mindset and many of them have their own startups or they are interested in developing their enterprises. But, they do not have proper guidance and support in taking up their Ideas or Startups to the next level. It is, therefore felt that, if such students are identified and provided the right kind of guidance, proper training and other academic support, many of them can do much more than what they are doing now and thus they can be great contributors to the Atmanirbhar Bharat mission of the Government of India. Also in context to the National Education Policy-2020 one of the mandate given to educational institutions is to inculcate the entrepreneurial mindset in the students.

With this in mind, the National Centre for Innovation in Distance Education (NCIDE) at IGNOU has taken an initiative to identify the established and budding innovator and entrepreneur students of IGNOU and give them due recognition and support by introducing a scheme of Recognizing IGNOU Student Entrepreneurs (RISE) as a Part of the IGNOU Udyami portal.
