In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized (subject to certain rules and regulations).

Alice Ramoin

Student

My name is Alice and I am an international student in Luxembourg. I love hanging out with friends, reading and writing. In the future, I plan to study abroad for 3 years in 3 different countries. Consequently, I know that my health will be challenged and that I need to invest in myself in order to stay happy. This is therefore why I decided to share my TEDX speech.

Charlotte Kramer

University undergraduate

The engineering profession has long been seen as a male field, a field which women are simply not fit for, not that they would be interested in such manly things anyways. But why is this? By looking at the biases and stereotypes which we expose young girls to throughout their formative years, this TEDx talk attempts to answer that question and address ways in which we can all change how we discuss gender disparities in engineering.

Elle Spencer

undergraduate

I am Elle Spencer. I love finding out how I can support others with a disability and I want to be a voice who can educate and help people understand that a disability is what makes you unique; it’s not a flaw in who you are. “What kind of society would we like to live in and is it our job to take away people's lives?” - Sally Phillips

Emma Mules

student

I am Emma Mules and I’m from England and Luxembourg. I am in my last year of high school and planning the next step in my life. This is what inspired me to do my Ted Talk becauseI do not want to have to go through life watching people who are still affected by microaggressions, which can grow into bigger issues.

Inês Rosa

student

My name is Inês Rosa, I am finishing my IB in hopes of studying political sciences in university. It has always been an ambition of mine to leave my mark in the world, to make a difference and help as many people as I possibly can. I created my speech with all the things I wish I had been told when I began moving countries, so I truly hope I can help others in the way I needed.
