Conference / Symposium
The Conference aims to bring together industry professionals and organizations working towards strengthening and supporting our country's democratic institutions.
With this, we hope to provide a stage for organizations working at a grassroots level and showcase their amazing work. Similarly, we hope to facilitate a stage for people to interact with these organizations and the panelists and become more informed and engaged citizens in our country.
