SOCIAL SECTOR
INITIATIVES IN 2015
Social Sector in the economy is increasingly being discussed in terms of its potential to bring about
transformational change to the status and opportunities of marginalized groups. Social schemes are believed
to empower poor people by helping them to adopt strategies to balance their immediate needs with their
investments in future livelihoods. They enable people to invest in more productive, but also riskier, activities
such as entrepreneurship or keeping their children in school. There is evidence that these interventions have:
promoted investments in childrens human capital and capabilities; increased the productivity of household
livelihood efforts; contributed to a sense of inclusion and citizenship; mobilised the poor around entitlement
claims; and impacted the local economy.
Hence to bring transformation in the lives of vulnerable and marginalized sections of the society different
Ministries of the government have taken varieties of initiatives in the last year (2015). These initiatives
Ministry-wise have been compiled to give a brief review about it.
