Being an organization concerned about spreading more and more awareness regarding the various types of disabilities, Trinayani needs to know the changes that are occurring in the disability sector and then share their work to be a part of the conversation by presenting their papers, attend and perform at conferences and events that revolve around similar causes. This helps us to increase our networks which eventually leads us into the depths of society.
