This key event is expected to trigger a paradigm shift in the perception about the critical social and educational issue of learning disability.

There will be keynote addresses and presentations by psychologists, educationists and thought leaders, whose initiatives, analyses and assessments of the situation would lead to serious soul-searching on vital social issues.
