What It Is
So what? Says who? Who cares?
The Age of How: Age old Problems. New Age Thinking. Age-nts of Change.
These are just a few themes teens give voice to at TEDxTeen.
TED is devoted to ideas worth spreading. It started in 1984 as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, Design. TED’s spin-off of local, self-organized events encouraged us to develop TEDxTeen.
TEDxTeen is an annual event in NYC that gives extraordinary teens a place and platform to share their work, tell their stories and inspire others. Bright young minds ask questions, air comments, and spark conversations that spread from one small stage to all corners of the worldwide web via TEDxTeen Talks.
Be part of TEDxTeen 2012 and "The Wisdom of Not Knowing" on March 31, 2012 in NYC!
Watch, share and get inspired.
