“This conference has reignited my passion for ethical leadership and community service,” said one participant. “I leave here today inspired and ready to make a difference.”

Mrs. Sandra Ani, the convener of VDL International conference, in her address expressed gratitude to all participants, speakers, and sponsors for their contributions to the success of the conference.

“Together, we have taken a significant step towards building a more compassionate and ethical society. I am confident that the conversations and connections made here will continue to inspire positive change in our communities,” she said.
