The sustainable development requires an integrated approach that combines individual well-being with broader socioeconomic progress. This study assesses the effects of the Training of Trainers (ToT) programs conducted by the Dattopant Thengadi National Board for Workers Education and Development (DTNBWED), an independent organisation under the Indian government's Ministry of Labour and Employment. The study is based on a purposively selected sample of 100 respondents, including supervisors, worker, and trainers, from the Mumbai and Barrackpore regions of DTNBWED. The findings show increased institutional effectiveness and participant empowerment, as well as statistically significant improvements in soft skills, leadership ability, and community involvement. The Well-being Wheel framework offers a conceptual framework for examining these changes. The program's long-term effects are further demonstrated by case studies of former workertrainers rising to positions of civic and political leadership. In the Indian context, this research contributes to the academic discourse on the role of participatory training in fostering sustainable livelihoods and grassroots leadership, as well as inclusive labour development and adult education.
