TEDxAlief's  mission is to ignite a spark of inspiration and action in our dynamic, multicultural community. We're bringing together a diverse group of change-makers and thought-leaders to share their bold, innovative ideas on a variety of topics, from technology and education to social justice and sustainability. Through our platform, we aim to empower attendees to challenge assumptions, question the status quo, and embrace new perspectives that can transform our community for the better. 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).
