ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

About the 43rd National Conference

Solutions to unprecedented crises require visionary thinking and agile execution. Minor changes or minuscule fixes to the systems and policies (or lack thereof) which created the crisis will not help us overcome the current challenges, and more importantly ensure future prevention of such incidents

Our country desperately needs a holistic transformational change; from people-centric to system-centric, from ad hoc to consistent, from opaque to transparent, from lack of unaccountability to definitive accountability and from loose or frivolous decision making to definitive decision making.

This is the thinking behind the theme of the 43rd National Conference!

We have lined up an exciting array of resource personnel and subject matter experts to discuss not only the key strategic areas that need transformation but also the need to transform as individuals, professionals, and citizens, as well as the requirement for society-level transformation without which we cannot achieve holistic country-wide transformation.
