- 12:10Baština kroz kolektivno djelovanje | Petra Zebić | TEDxKoprivnicaLibraryPetra i članovi kolektiva žele, zajedno s lokalnim zajednicama, prijateljima i društvima, graditi mostove među generacijama, među imaginacijama i među odsutnošću povezanosti, kako bi omogućili međugeneracijski kontinuitet, razmjenu i kreativnost u području opipljive i neopipljive baštine. Cilj je ponovo uspostaviti lanac prijenosa znanja, vještina i stavova između generacija te potaknuti brigu za prirodu i zajedničko dobro. Petra Zebić je arhitektica i suosnivačica Iskra Kolektiva koja živi i radi u Zagrebu. Trenutačno se pretežito bavi stambenom arhitekturom. Najviše ju zanima održivo i socijalno stanovanje te uloga arhitekture i urbanizma u oblikovanju društvenih zajednica.U okviru Iskra Kolektiva istražuje kulturnu baštinu kroz kreativne i taktilne pristupe, promatrajući je kao vrijednost za suvremeni život, a ne samo kao predmet očuvanja. Inspiraciju pronalazi u tradicionalnim tehnikama i izumima, koje reinterpretira kako bi stvorila nova, funkcionalna i smisleno oblikovana rješenja.Za Petru, baština i suvremenost nisu suprotnosti, nego sugovornici u dijalogu koji vodi prema kulturno održivoj arhitekturi s jasnim identitetom i stvarnom relevantnošću za današnje društvo.

- 17:43「関係ない」から照らす灯火 | A Light kindled from Indifference | Sawako Shirahase | TEDxUTokyo世界の不平等や格差は、私たちの生活から遠いもののように見えます。でも「当事者でない」からこそできることがあります。社会学者・白波瀬氏が、自分の立場を超えて他者を想像する「他者感覚」の力と、小さな行動が誰かの夜を照らす灯火になりうることを語ります。Global inequality and social gaps may seem distant from our daily lives. But precisely because we are not direct “insiders,” we can play a vital role. Sociologist Professor Hiramase invites us to cultivate “empathy for others” and shows how even small acts from those outside the problem can light hope in someone’s darkest night. Her specialty is sociology, and she recently launched the Endowed Chair in Inclusive Glocal Future Society Program, where she is conducting policy-related research on inclusion from global and local perspectives. 専門は社会学。最近は、包摂型グローカル未来社会寄附講座を立ち上げて、包摂の在り方についてグローバルと地域（ローカル）の視点から政策関連研究を進めている。 This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

- 10:19The Power of Not Belonging | Subharna Suruthi | TEDxGIIS DubaiWe’re always told to fit in. To choose a lane. To become one thing. But what if the in-between is where real growth happens? My talk explores “The Third Space” — the powerful place between belonging and becoming. From childhood silence to sports leadership, I share how the grey zones shaped my confidence, resilience, and identity. This talk is a reminder that not belonging isn’t weakness — it’s freedom. And freedom is where we become ourselves. We’re told belonging is everything. But what if the most powerful growth happens when we don’t belong? In this talk, Subharna takes the audience into “The Third Space” — the strange, electric territory between identities where you’re neither this nor that… and yet more than both. Through stories of silence, sport, loss, and leadership, she reveals a surprising truth: the people who don’t fully fit anywhere often become the ones who create what didn’t exist before — and become most fully themselves.
