Students organize TEDx conference

Uppsala university together with students from the Master Programme in Sustainable Development organize on September 21 for the first time: TEDxUppsalaUniversity - an independently organized TED event based on the highly successful concept that allows the greatest minds and best speakers to present their ideas in a creative and audience friendly way by delivering inspirational talks of maximum 18 minutes.

The event has the theme "Resilience" and will provide a platform to speakers from all kinds of disciplines and backgrounds to share their creative ideas and stories around this concept. Today’s societal challenges are global, interdependent and increasingly complex. They require systems, societies and individuals to be able to respond with greater flexibility, speed and creativity. In the face of so many challenges how resilient are we really?
