A one-day, participatory event, TEDxYouthInspire used the theme “A Good Head & A Good Heart”, taken from a quote by former South African President Nelson Mandela, to exhibit how extraordinary youth leaders combine radical thought and integrity of spirit to set in motion unlimited possibilities for a brighter future.
Remaining true to the spirit of the TED Conference – hosting the world’s most fascinating thinkers and doers, and challenging them to give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes or less – TEDxYouthInspire was comprised of a mix of live talks and performances as well as pre-recorded talks from recent TED conferences.
This independent TEDx event was operated under license from TED. For more information on TEDx visit www.ted.com/tedx.Other creatorsSee project -
