Innovations Beyond Boundaries
Dear Audiologists, Speech-Language Pathologists, Young Scientists, and Esteemed Guests,
The Indian Speech and Hearing Association - Gujarat Branch (GISHA) extends a warm and heartfelt welcome to all delegates, students pursuing their degrees in the dynamic and specialized field of Speech and Hearing, company representatives providing technological support to clinical practices, media professionals helping raise awareness for individuals with communication disorders, and all dedicated volunteers — to the 57th Annual Convention of the Indian Speech-Language and Hearing Association (ISHACON), being held in the vibrant city of Ahmedabad, in the culturally rich state of Gujarat.
Ahmedabad, a UNESCO World Heritage City, stands as a symbol of India’s blend of tradition and modernity. Known for its architectural brilliance, thriving industries, and deep-rooted cultural heritage, the city has been a historic center for learning, commerce, and spirituality. Home to Mahatma Gandhi’s Sabarmati Ashram, Ahmedabad reflects the values of peace, resilience, and innovation.
Gujarat is also known for its rapid strides in education, healthcare, agriculture, and infrastructure. As one of India’s most progressive states, it offers a dynamic setting for academic and professional events like ISHACON. Delegates will enjoy the city’s warm hospitality, vibrant markets, and iconic culinary delights — especially the flavors of khakhra, fafda, thepla, and undhiyu.
The 57th ISHACON in Ahmedabad promises to be a rewarding experience, offering exceptional opportunities to learn from and interact with national and international leaders in the field of Speech and Hearing — enriching your clinical skills and broadening your professional network.
We hope your time in Ahmedabad is both intellectually and culturally enriching, and that you return with cherished memories and new inspiration.
Once again, GISHA warmly welcomes you to the 57th ISHACON, Ahmedabad.
