TEDxIHSW Youth started with one idea — bringing TED’s Ideas Worth Spreading to the community of Wrocław, Poland, in a way that is accessible to the national and international members of the city, with an emphasis on youth.
Our event is organized by students at the International High School of Wrocław, and
aims to provide an enriching experience for attendees, featuring live TEDx presenters.
TEDxIHSW Youth invites you to rethink reality and amplify the voices of young visionaries. Our theme for our 2024 event is in line with this: “Rethinking Reality”
Through our choice in theme, we hope our event will serve as a vibrant platform for impassioned discussions, and be able to bridge and share diverse perspectives to inspire positive change, discourse, and overall learning and reflection within our community. With a focus on empowering youth to share their innovative ideas and stories, we promise an immersive experience filled with thought-provoking talks and transformative insights, aiming to cultivate curiosity, spark connections, and shape the future.
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, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection. 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.)
TED is on a mission to discover and spread ideas that spark imagination, embrace possibility and catalyze impact. Our organization is devoted to curiosity, reason, wonder and the pursuit of knowledge — without an agenda. We welcome people from every discipline and culture who seek a deeper understanding of the world and connection with others, and we invite everyone to engage with ideas and activate them in your community.
TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, but today it spans a multitude of worldwide communities and initiatives exploring everything from science and business to education, arts and global issues. In addition to the hundreds of TED Talks curated from our annual conferences and published on TED.com, we produce original podcasts, short video series, animated educational lessons (TED-Ed) and TV programs that are translated into more than 100 languages and distributed via partnerships around the world. Each year, more than 3,000 independently run TEDx events bring people together to share ideas and bridge divides in communities on every continent. Through the Audacious Project, TED has helped catalyze more than $3 billion in funding for projects that seek to make the world more beautiful, sustainable and just. In 2020, TED launched Countdown, an initiative to accelerate solutions to the climate crisis and mobilize a movement for a net-zero future. View a full list of TED’s many programs and initiatives.
TED is owned by a nonprofit, nonpartisan foundation. Our aim is to help create a future worth pursuing for all.
