Every year, youth of all ages are brought together to inspire their peers to reach or surpass their own potential, in ways they didn’t know was possible. The speakers that will be heard at TedxKids@BC will share their ideas and stories that will inspire and educate others.
The TEDxKids@BC conference is a half day event where 800+ attendees ages 7-18 years old (accompanied by guardians and educators) enjoy a unique selection of speakers, entertainment, interactive booths and connect with peers with the same passion and curiosity.
Events like TedxKids@BC renew the ideology that there’s always an opportunity to discover something new. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment & Design. Adding youth to the mix creates opportunities to inspire others in new ways that are relevant to today’s generations. Communities are shown new ways to change their perspective of looking at the world by learning from their youth.
There are many youth in our community that can teach and inspire others; spark regeneration of self. Youth overcoming obstacles can transform into positive inspirations for peers everywhere. Everyone has the potential to breathe new life into an idea or person. Regeneration is a concept that everyone can participate in.
