The Government of Kerala, through the Kerala Knowledge Economy Mission under K-DISC (Kerala Development and Innovation Strategic Council), is spearheading a visionary transformation to establish Kerala as a knowledge-driven economy. A key component of this mission is the Work Near Home (WNH) project, specifically designed to enhance women's participation in the workforce.

Enhance Workforce Participation: Create avenues for women to participate in the knowledge economy without the constraints of long commutes or rigid work schedules.

The WNH initiative aims to empower women by addressing barriers that often hinder their engagement in traditional employment. By creating flexible and nearby work opportunities, this project aspires to foster inclusivity, boost productivity, and contribute to Kerala’s ambitious goal of generating 20 lakh knowledge sector jobs by 2026.

Promote Work-Life Balance: Enable women to manage professional and personal responsibilities more effectively.
