THE THEME: Ideas To Impact

An idea is like a seed—it holds the potential for growth, change, and transformation.
Our theme focuses on the strong force that moves our society forward, creating change, dialogue, and impact. What is to grow in the face of adversity? It is to never fear pivoting, adapting, or starting over. If one aspires to create lasting impact, you must embrace the unknown—rethink, rebuild, and innovate.
To thrive in this constantly evolving world, we must harness the power of ideas to create meaningful change in our communities and beyond, and that is what the 10th edition of TEDxYouth is about - cultivating a landscape where innovative ideas flourish and drive positive IMPACTS in the society.


About TED

TED is a nonprofit organization that is devoted to spreading ideas.  It began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment, and Design converged, and today covers almost all topics — from science to business to global issues — in more than 100 languages.  It is a global community, welcoming people from every discipline and culture who seek a deeper understanding of the world. It is built on the belief in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives, and, ultimately, the world. Meanwhile, independently run TEDx events to help share ideas in communities around the world. TEDx, x = independently organized event in the spirit of ideas worth spreading, 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.

About TEDxYouth@NMS

TEDxYouth event. Children ages fourteen through eighteen from our community have shared their personal journeys, captivating stories, and ideas that inspire an audience of all ages.

Since 2015, TEDxYouth@NMS has been an exhilarating TEDxYouth event organised annually by Neerja Modi School. It is aimed at igniting thoughts, sparking conversations, and broadening the horizons of not only the youth at NMS or India but the world as a whole. Through the years we have explored the themes of Rising to Challenges, The Next Chapter, Academia and Creativity, and we hope to continue inspiring as we invite eloquent voices to speak about Nurturing Wonders this year.
