Participants will also get the chance to stay on the pulse of the latest in humanitarian innovations and the best current practices currently being employed.

The panel discussion on the first day will particularly delve into the homegrown success stories of non-profits and social enterprises that have championed kindness as their core purpose, and their journey to building sustainable organisations.
