The conference took place online November 25-26, running synchronously in India and in Canada. There were over 600 attendees present during the two days of the conference.
TWU partners in different parts of the world were invited to join. There were attendees from India, China, Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria, Jamaica, and Canada.
