Some comments from delegates from outside India.
This conference, admirably hosted by KMV, is one of a kind. Everything has been superlative. … I have attended many conferences over the past 20 years. This is one I shall never forget.
Very informative, and enriching: Scholars from around the globe with a lot of experience and knowledge. Good to interact with students. Cultural events were amazing.
One doesn’t need to look for a perfect example of women’s empowerment and what women can do as leaders of institutions, if only they can take a good look at KMV, its splendid leadership under Atima and her devoted and devout colleagues such as you Seema working with her.
The KMV staff under the stewardship of Professor Dr Atima Sharma Dwivedi have outdone themselves. I for one was mesmerised by the exhibited unmatched cultural extravaganza at KMV. The venue where I presented was a full house. Filled to rafters by passionate, enthusiastic, elegant, inquisitive young minds (students). For me, this marked the greatest epoch of the ESBB Conference.
You gave grandeur to ESBB and also courage to us as researchers and teachers as you showed interest in our investigations and reports.
This conference in my opinion was the highlight of the history of ESBB.
We miss India so much because of the beauty, vision and strength your school ( colleagues, students and staff) have displayed through the conference. It is an incredible school that touches our heart deeply! In fact, we couldn’t stop sharing news, photos and even talking to my class about you all. You are amazing in every way and we learn so much from you as well!
Heartfelt gratitude for making this conference and insightful and thought-provoking experience; and for making us feel so welcome that no words are sufficient.
A very well-organised conference. I appreciate the opportunity provided by KMV to attend one of the most fabulous conferences.
The conference was amazing. Let me congratulate you for a wonderful team– teachers, co-ordinators, students, helping staff– everybody helpful in an effective manner.
The Sessions were so enriching, resource persons & presentations all excellent. It is the most successful Conference I have attended (I have an experience of more than 20 conf)– the best one so far… would definitely love to come here again.
From Inside India
I have never found such an organised educational institution. We have to learn a lot of things from this outstanding Institution. As Principal/ Professor of a girls’ college, I have learnt so many things which I will introduce in my college.
