Authors
Dr. Sakkeer V
Abstract
Life skill education serves as a vital tool for lifelong learning and
personal development. It encompasses essential psychological abilities such as
critical thinking, decision-making, and effective communication, which empower
individuals to navigate the complexities of life. Grounded in frameworks
provided by WHO and UNICEF, life skills foster psychological competence,
self-efficacy, and holistic growth. Complementary soft skills like digital
literacy and leadership are crucial for professional success. Despite progress,
challenges such as gender disparities in literacy persist in India,
underscoring the importance of targeted educational policies like the National
Education Policy 2020 and initiatives like the Jan Shikshan Sansthan Scheme.
This article explores life skill education's transformative role in equipping
individuals to address personal and societal challenges, contributing to
national progress and equitable development.
