Мы все архитекторы и каким будет наше наследие зависит от нас | Бекзат Аманжол | TEDxAstana
Архитектор Бекзат Аманжол поделился, что часто задумывается – что такое архитектура? Ведь она не только про здания. Архитектура – это про жизнь людей внутри этих зданий, про память, про идентичность. Уже 20 лет Бекзат проектирует и наблюдает, как меняется Казахстан. Так, в 90-е в стране строились преимущественно дома, потом – дороги и заводы, а сегодня запрос иной – культурные и образовательные пространства. А это, по словам Бекзата, значит, что мы взрослеем как общество. «Архитектура – это не только работа архитекторов. Мы все архитекторы. Каждый, кто заботится о своем дворе, уважает общее пространство, сохраняет наследие. Наши города – это наше зеркало. И только от нас зависит, каким оно будет завтра», – отметил Бекзат.
Архитектор Бекзат Аманжол өзіне «Архитектура деген не?» деген сұрақты жиі қоятынын айтты. Оның айтуынша, архитектура – тек ғимараттар емес, бұл – сол ғимараттардың ішіндегі адамдардың өмірі, жады, болмысы туралы ұғым. Бекзат 20 жылдан бері жобалап, Қазақстанның қалай өзгеріп келе жатқанын бақылап жүр. 90-жылдары алдымен үйлер салынды, кейін жолдар мен зауыттар тұрғызылды, ал бүгінде мәдени және білім беру кеңістіктеріне сұраныс жоғары. Бұл, Бекзаттың сөзінше, біздің қоғам ретінде есейіп келе жатқанымыздың белгісі. «Архитектура – тек архитекторлардың жұмысы емес. Біз бәріміз – архитекторлармыз. Өз ауласын күткен, ортақ кеңістікке құрметпен қараған, мұраны сақтап қалуға талпынған әрбір адам – архитектор. Біз бен сіз тұратын қалалар – біздің айнамыз. Ертеңгі күні сол айнадан не көретініміз – өзімізге байланысты», – деді Бекзат.
Architect Bekzat Amanzhol often asks himself a simple question: what is architecture?
Architecture is not only about buildings. It is about the lives of people inside those buildings, about memory, and about identity.For 20 years, Bekzat has been designing and observing how Kazakhstan is changing. In the 1990s, housing was built first. Later came roads and factories. Today, the demand is different — for cultural and educational spaces. According to Bekzat, this shows that we are maturing as a society.“Architecture is not only the work of architects. We are all architects. Everyone who takes care of their courtyard, respects shared spaces, and preserves heritage. Our cities are our mirror, and it is up to us what that mirror will look like tomorrow,” Bekzat said.Бекзат Аманжол – архитектор с 20-летним опытом в проектировании и строительстве, основатель Levelstudio. Получил степень магистра в Архитектурно-строительной академии и Университете Marangoni (Милан).
В своей работе стремится переосмысливать архитектуру как форму культурного выражения, в которой встречаются наследие, современность и идентичность.➖Бекзат Аманжол – жобалау және құрылыс саласында жиырма жылдық тәжірибесі бар архитектор, Levelstudio компаниясының негізін қалаушы. Сәулет-құрылыс академиясында және Миландағы Marangoni университетінде магистр дәрежесін алған.
Бекзат өз жұмыстары арқылы архитектураны мұра, заманауи және бірегей болмысты тоғыстыратын мәдени құбылыс ретінде қарастырады.➖

- 12:29How Will AI Affect How We Raise Children? | Meghan Puglia | TEDxMidAtlanticDevelopmental neuroscientist and mother Meghan Puglia explores the most critical window in human development — the first 1,000 days of life — and what it reveals about raising children in an AI-driven world. Drawing on cutting-edge science and deeply human moments, she explains why connection, intention, and even imperfection are essential for building resilient brains. This talk challenges us to think more carefully about how technology fits into raising future generations. Dr. Meghan Puglia is a neuroscientist, storyteller, educator, and data enthusiast – passionate about understanding how brains are built and how early experiences shape who we become.In her own words, "I lead the Developmental Neuroanalytics Lab, where we use brain imaging and data science to understand how babies grow, learn, and thrive – especially those born prematurely or at risk for developmental challenges. My work looks at how biology and experience come together to influence each child’s unique development, behavior, and health – from infancy and beyond.But I don’t think science should stay hidden in academic journals. I care deeply about making research understandable and useful for parents, health professionals, and curious minds everywhere.It is my mission to take our science from the lab to your living room. I’m committed to writing about child development, collaborating on early childhood and health science projects, and hosting my new podcast, called Un-Hidden Curriculum – where I will be sharing behind-the-scenes insights on science, the brain, and navigating academic life.I’m also a first-generation college graduate and a mom, and I know how challenging it can be to carve out space in places not built with you in mind. I believe everyone deserves access to knowledge, and the power to shape it. That’s why I’m devoted to building tools, stories, and resources that help people connect with science that they can trust, understand, and use to make informed decisions that will benefit current and future generations."

- 10:39What does a fair salary look like? | Sandro Colombo | TEDxHWZMost salary systems look fair on paper: clear criteria, clear rules, clear numbers. Age, degrees, and years of experience promise objectivity and justice. In The Fairness Question Behind Salaries, Sandro Colombo questions this promise and shares his story of co-creating an impact-driven pay system. A story that includes bold intentions, painful missteps, and a phase where everything felt broken. It shows how a team learned, grew, and redefined fairness together - and why progress in compensation has less to do with formulas but more with ownership, trust, and continuous (self-) development. Sandro Colombo is co-founder of indigo online AG, a Swiss software agency creating digital solutions with purpose and impact. After starting out as an apprentice application engineer, he co-founded indigo at 19 and has led the company through growth, innovation, and organizational transformation including adopting holacracy — a change that reshaped both structure and culture. Passionate about fairness, value creation, and personal development, Sandro explores how organizations can move beyond rigid structures toward models that honor real contribution, learning, and growth.
