- 14:18Brasil: problema ou solução? | Carol Paiffer | TEDxCuiabáCarol Paiffer traz à tona um retrato incômodo do Brasil: um país marcado por dependências emocionais, financeiras e culturais que atravessam famílias e gerações. Do endividamento ao medo de arriscar, esses padrões aprisionam e alimentam a descrença em nosso próprio potencial. Mas Carol nos mostra que existe um caminho, a educação. Educar é libertar, é transformar crenças limitantes em construtivas e romper a síndrome do vira-lata que tanto nos trava. Sua fala é um convite para enxergar o Brasil não como problema, mas como solução. Carol é reconhecida por sua expertise nos mercados financeiros, sendo investidora no programa Shark Tank Brasil, com papel ativo no apoio a empreendedores, somando mais de 60 investidos em todas as temporadas. Também é socia fundadora do grupo Êxito e CEO da Atom Educacional, única empresa de educação financeira listada na B3.

- 7:51Is History Shaped by who Tells It | Raffaella Poggio-Magnus | TEDxFrancisHollandSchoolSloaneSquareWhen we study history in school, we consider it to be a record of facts. But how far is this truthful? We will look at how history can be shaped and influenced by politics, ideology and cultural perspecitve. In many cases, what we learn is not the full story, but a version that reflects the priorities of the people who document it. This will be done by looking at recent and widely known historical events such as the Cold War, WWI and WWII, and looking at the impact this has had on how they are taught and remembered. In looking at all this, it begs the question of can we consider to be factual? To explore this we will look at interpretations from Foucault and Nietzsche to develop our understanding of this concept. Overall this talk will highlight the importance of looking at multiple perspectives in order to understand the past more deeply and gain a sense of the winder picture. Raffaella Poggio-Magnus is a student at Francis Holland School. She is currently studying History, Politics and Economics A-Level. She plans to study History and Philosophy at University.
