Announcing: TEDYouth
In honor of Universal Children’s Day, TED, the national phenomenon of conferences that focus on short talks with big ideas, is launching TEDYouth. The main TEDYouth event will take place on November 19, 2011 at the Times Center in New York City and coincide with more than 85 self-organized TEDxYouthDay events happening worldwide on November 19-21, 2011.
The theme for the TEDYouth program is “Play, Learn, Build and Share.” Be inspired and challenged by 20 passionate TEDYouth speakers who’ll inspire creativity, share mind-shifting stories, and engage their physical and virtual audience in ways that every student deserves.
Attendance is open to 300 6th to 12th graders in the New York area. Click here for more information and to apply, and watch this video to learn more about what TEDx is all about:
