IndiGoReach Partners with Blind People’s Association to Launch Skill Development Programme

New Delhi, May 04 2026: IndiGoReach has partnered with Blind People’s Association (BPA), Ahmedabad, to launch a skill development programme aimed at underserved communities, including Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) and individuals from gender-diverse groups.

The initiative is designed to upskill 300 youth by providing industry-relevant training and recognised certifications across sectors such as travel, transportation, logistics, and hospitality. The programme aims to improve employability and support participants in accessing sustainable livelihood opportunities.

The collaboration aligns with IndiGo’s focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion, with an emphasis on creating accessible pathways for skill development. BPA, known for its work in disability inclusion and rehabilitation, will support programme implementation and training delivery.

Ms. Rohini Bhatia, Chairperson, InterGlobe Foundation and Advisor to the CSR Committee, IndiGo, said, "True inclusion is realised when we create pathways for every individual to contribute meaningfully to society. Our partnership with Blind People’s Association reflects a shared commitment to breaking barriers and fostering self-reliance, bringing together core values of inclusion, capability building, and community trust. By creating accessible and industry-relevant skill development pathways, IndiGoReach and InterGlobe Foundation are dedicated to empowering youth and persons with disabilities to transition towards sustainable and meaningful livelihoods, ensuring that every individual has an equal opportunity to realise their full potential."

Skill development remains a key focus area under IndiGo’s CSR initiatives. In FY2025–26, the airline reported reaching over one lakh individuals through various capacity-building programmes.

IndiGo also continues to advance workplace inclusion through its EMBRACE framework, which focuses on equity, multiculturalism, belonging, respect, accessibility, community, and empowerment.
