Pillar: Connectivity
In South Goa, 28.3% of children under five are stunted, better than the typical Indian district. The Anganwadi centre is the frontline for changing that: supplementary nutrition, growth monitoring, and pre-school for children up to six.
84% of registered enterprises are in services while 16% are in manufacturing. Only 7% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. Higher secondary enrollment (classes 9–12) is 108%, likely reflecting students enrolling from neighbouring areas. Only 36% of ITI trainers are certified.
In South Goa, which ranks 2 of 2 in Goa for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 62.9 out of 100. It runs ahead of the national picture on women who are anaemic at 37.7% and households in the poorest wealth group at 0.7%.
