Every child is human, and that means every child has emotions. Sometimes, kids are going through silent battles, feeling hurt, scared, or sad; but no one can see it. In this talk, I want to ask a simple question: Are you really okay? As children, we have the power to speak up, not just for ourselves, but for others too. We can help save children from these endless bits of devastation by being kind, listening, and standing up for what’s right. Together, we can make the world a safer and more caring place for every child. Rose is a student at Barayip Primary School.

- 12:22From idea to adoption and back: How to take startups from 0 to 1 | Maggie Chen | TEDxUofTSalonThis talk is about the of going from zero to one, or the journey of taking an idea and finding that first customer or user. It provides a framework for innovation, covering the essential steps to close this gap. The key is not necessarily about flawless the execution of each step, instead, it’s about how many times you can complete that loop. While the discussion is grounded in research, the takeaways may be relevant to anyone working to bring new ideas into practice.
