Survivor domestic abuse speaks up - I left on a tuesday | Chiara Lisowski | TEDxMaastricht


Chiaras emotional talk covers the subject of domestic abuse. “I chose this topic because violence against women is still seen as a taboo and more specifically a ‘women’s issue’ when really, it is everyone’s problem. I would like to challenge you to dispel any stereotypes they may have about abuse. If I can help just one person free themselves of an abusive relationship with my words, then that would be one less person living in unjust suffering. In the words of Maya Angelou: ‘Each time a woman stands up for herself, she stands up for all women’.” Chiara Lisowski leaves us without words.

Words can change the world: how language learning deepens connection | Louka Parry | TEDxAdelaide


Why learn another language? Words provide us with the ability for connection, empathy and perspective-taking. And when you learn multiple languages you improve your brain, you accelerate your capacity to learn, and you become a better communicator. Vitally, you are also able to step into the world of another human being. To truly understand them and speak to their heart. The question isn’t why should you learn a language, it’s why wouldn’t you. Louka Parry is an award-winning educator and hyperlearner who speaks five languages, holds two Masters degrees and has traveled to over 50 countries. After growing up monolingual in the city of Adelaide, Australia, Louka moved to Europe and uncovered a passion for languages, culture and learning. He returned to Australia to become a teacher and began his career in a very remote Aboriginal community, now working globally to help transform schools and learning. He continues to accumulate languages and advocates for all of us to step into the unknown to grow, connect and thrive.

الأحلام تستحق المخاطرة | آمال إبراهيم | TEDxAlhamraaLive


تحكي لنا آمال قصتها مع صراعها الذاتي التي بدأت منذ 2006 حيث اكتشفت حينها بأن رغباتها كثيرة ومتعددة خلاف بقية الأطفال، وذكرت بأن زيارتها لجامعة دار الحكمة في المرحلة الثانوية كانت بمثابة رحلة استكشاف لذاتها استطاعت من خلالها تحديد تخصصها الجامعي. وأخيرًا وضّحت لنا آمال بأنها قررت مُصاحبة صوتها الداخلي، حيث كان أعلى ارتفاعاً من بقية الأصوات التي حولها محاولاً بذلك التخفيف من شدّة الاحباط الذي أصابها، وأشارت بأنه كان بمثابة الدليل الواضح لها في كثير من الأحيان وهو الذي أوصلها إلى ما هي عليه الآن.
