sustainability of NIESBUD’s training programs. The study will analyse their impact on
participants in terms of capacity building, establishment of entrepreneurial ventures,
employment generation, income enhancement, and access to finance and markets. It will
also evaluate inclusiveness by examining participation and outcomes across gender,
regions, and socio-economic categories. Further, the study will identify implementation
gaps, challenges, and best practices, and provide evidence-based recommendations to
strengthen program design, delivery, and scalability.
The study shall also include peer benchmarking of NIESBUD’s training processes and
