Guaranty
Trust has been at the forefront of the advocacy for children and adults living
with autism. Its Annual Autism Conference is the major rallying point for
driving awareness about Autism, campaigning against the social stigma
associated with developmental disorders, and helping people with autism live a
full and productive life. In 2020, the Guaranty Trust Annual Autism Conference
was held via live stream, bringing together people from around the world at the
height of the Covid-19 pandemic.
This
year, alongside the Livestream option, attendees will be able to physically
participate in the Guaranty Trust Annual Autism Conference, whilst observing
all health and safety guidelines. At the two-day event, seasoned specialists
from renowned institutions, such as Duquesne University, Pennsylvania and The
Colour of Autism Foundation, USA, will deliver keynote presentations, panel
discussions, and topical Q&A sessions on managing Autism. Some of the
facilitators include Dr. Waganesh Zeleke of Duquesne University, USA, Lanre
Duyile of Behaviorprise Consulting Inc, Canada, and Kora Hardy of Nuru Behavioral
Network, USA.
