The Dalit activists who came in November 1999 were able to make the Churches and the local community aware of the plight of Dalits. They lived on the generosity of the local community of Grimsby especially Dr. & Mrs. Sarkar who provided accommodation to the Team for one year. The Team’s interaction and initiatives attracted even the local news on July 7, 2008 in the form of an article ‘charity plays host to Indian guests’.
Towards the middle of 2002,VODI made an arrangement with Southall School of Languages and Missionary Orientation to start an international Course on Dalit Development / Justice and Development Course. The Course officially started in 2003 and the next two years it took almost all the attention of VODI. For the first time in the history of Dalits, such an international Course was started. VODI was able to provide opportunity to 23 participants from India and Nepal. Some of them, after training have gone back to resume their work in their countries with a greater responsibility, some others joined with international Dalit movements and the remaining are continuing their higher studies in UK. 
First ever International Conference on Dalit Human rights was organized by VODI in association with of Dalit Solidarity Network UK the communities of Ravidass, Valmiki, Ambedkarites Buddhists and Christians with whom VODI was interacting from its inception. It was a historic conference as it was for the first time Dalit Diaspora from various religious affiliations and many eminent Dalit leaders from India came together in an international conference. The Dalit leaders Mr. G.S. Chambers and Mr. T. R. Bali of Sri Guru Ravidass Sabha, Mr. Satpal Muman and Mr. Gautam Chakravarthy of Ambedkarite Buddhists, Mr. Dharmpaul Nahar and Mr. Baldeve Gill of Valmik Community were very supportive of these initiates. Apart from the forging of unity and common strategy by the Dalit community, the conference also made a tremendous contribution through two specific papers – ‘Caste in Britain' – by Mr. Satpal Muman, second being, ‘International Aid agencies Addressing Dalit Issues'- by Mr. Leo Bashyam of Christian Aid. The Conference proceedings were published in a book form by 
In May 2002, VODI organised a Conference on the above subject in Birmingham, inviting This was to draw the attention of the international community of aid agencies to the realities of poverty and its relation to Dalit situation. This Conference also highlighted the existence of caste in Britain, which was followed up by Radio-4 by interviewing different resource persons from the Conference. 
Through the previous campaign and conference of VODI, the issue of International aid agencies addressing Dalit issues became more accepted. To further the campaign and advocating the concept VODI organsied this national level conference ont eh same topic folloed by various state level seminars. This conference in which many Dalit activists, intellectuals participated came out with ‘Delhi Declaration’ (See Conference for details). 
VODI continued with the campaign for due share of Dalit in the developmental scenario by organizing another conference in Nepal in association with Jana Uttaan Pratishthan (JUP) of Nepal and other members of the Dalit NGO Federation of Nepal. It The Delhi Declaration and the DSN papers on the subject was widely discussed and debated. 
VODI organised the first ever international Conference on Dalit Christian Rights held in London from 24-25, April 06. The Christian population in India is drawn largely from the lower echelons of society. Dalit Christians constitute more than 70% of the Christian community, which in the 2001 census numbered 25 million, around 2.3% of India’s total population. 
Since the relief was not reaching the deserving victims of the earthquake especially the Dalits, various UK based Dalit organizations entrusted the responsibility of providing relief to the victims. Hence VODI got directly involved in the relief and rehbilitaion works in Gujarat since 2002 based at Madhpura, in Kutch District
The 2004 tsunami once again established the existing discrimination against Dalits even during times of disasters. Along with highlighting this practice even by the aid agencies, VODI used the opportunity to form a Working Committee under the leadership of Mr. Jagdish Rai, one of the community members with the aim of developing it into an aid agency in the future to reach out to the discriminated groups during times of disasters and to fund other developmental projects. One of the first contributions to DALITAID from the community groups was used to produce a film on ‘Tsunami and Dalit Resurgence'
