Daizang is a Zou village within Churachandpur district of Manipur, India. This place is best known for hosting the first JCA Conference on 20 February 1954. This historic meet was a watershed in the social history of the Zou people in India. It marked the mass conversion of the Zou community from their pagan Sakhua religion to the Christian faith.
