You are cordially invited to the next TEDxTheHague salon! Our April edition — themed Spirits of Humanities Past, Present and Future — is curated by TEDxTheHague regular Andre Kuyt. Andre writes:
"It’s basically themed around humanity, with talks describing our origins, our present status quo and our future challenges. I have chosen this theme because I’m fascinated by the human ability to create complex societies in the most varied circumstances, and by the force of technology uplifting our standard of living.”
We'll explore this theme by watching and discussing the following videos:
