Dear Colleagues!
The entire conference was broadcast for three days on a specially organized online platform for an audience from Russia. People from Kaliningrad to Sakhalin listened to reports and lectures from both halls live! We received feedback from different parts of our vast country, and they are enthusiastic. The conference ran smoothly in THREE languages, and language barriers did not interfere with the dissemination of the best knowledge and practices. There is a lot of work ahead, but as the conference showed, we all know how to do it for the benefit of those wonderful people who have autism. Thank you!!

Chairman of the RusABA Board, Director of the ABA-training Center “StepUp ABA” (Russia)

Dear colleagues, dear organising committee, I am so proud to join this perfect conference. Thank you for inviting me. It was my first trip to Emirates and I am absolutely charming with this country. All the people from the organising committee were so supportive and so open hearted, despite on their busyness. Thanks a lot for Autism Challenge Center for your outstanding efforts for making live persons with autism and their families better. Hope to see all of you again soon!

Thank you so much for all the kindness shown to me over the last few days. I had a super time and enjoyed the presentations as well as the camaraderie.

I was, as you could probably see, at the presentation at the end of the conference proper, stunned by the reception I received. As you know, life has been difficult for me recently and I cannot pretend that I am through that phase yet but there is certainly light at the end of the tunnel. I will be going to the lab today to discuss the presentations with the lads and get their views on it,

The travel was hard work and I had to miss a nights sleep as I was squashed between two overweight men on the flight and there were a few delays too.

I feel revitalised. My colleagues and I have been speaking at a number of places in the Balkan States to parents and teachers mainly but it is the first proper scientific event I have been to for some years (Covid partly to blame). Thank you again for the invitation and for encouraging me to attend.

with gratitude and very best wishes,
Paul Shattock.

We at the SEDRA Foundation are incredibly proud to have been a community partner of the International Autism Conference held in Abu Dhabi Rotana Hotel from 28 - 30 April. The conference provided a unique opportunity to bring together local and international experts in the field of autism to share their knowledge, experiences and latest research.

We were particularly thrilled with the parent track sessions that provided a dedicated space for parents to engage with the latest research and strategies to support their children with autism. The parent track sessions were led by renowned experts in the field of autism and provided a valuable forum for parents to connect, learn and share their experiences.

The conference program design was well thought out, with a variety of lectures, workshops, and interactive sessions that provided a comprehensive overview of the latest research, strategies, and interventions related to autism. The sessions were engaging, informative, and provided practical insights for attendees to implement in their personal and professional lives.

We were also pleased to see the involvement of local experts as session heads, which added an important dimension to the conference. It was heartening to see the local committee taking an active role in organizing the conference, which not only showcased their commitment to autism awareness but also provided a platform for international collaboration.

Overall, the International Autism Conference was a resounding success, and we were thrilled to be a community partner for this groundbreaking event. We look forward to continuing our partnership with the conference and the broader autism community in the UAE, to promote inclusion and accessibility for people of determination.

The conference involved multiple organizing stakeholders and gathered an experienced international group of outstanding scientists, clinicians, caregivers, and most importantly parents to learn and network. The event covered a wide range of topics, presented diverse scientific perspectives, and provided valuable insights into the latest research and best practices in the field.
The conference was a success and reached a wide audience across the world through its organized online platforms.
