Welcome to Leja Bulela's 27th Annual Virtual Conference page! This year's conference will be hosted by The Planning Committee free of charge via the Zoom platform. To download Zoom, click here. Although the conference is free of charge, we are asking each participant to make a suggested donation of $35 to support the work and life-saving health services as the Kalala Muzeu Health center.
