Growth Between The Walls of Despair and Hope | Elijah Buol OAM | TEDxQUT

From a Ugandan refugee camp to a life of leadership in Australia, Elijah Buol's journey shows the resilience of the human spirit. His story is a testament to hope, and the power of never giving up. Elijah Buol OAM brings a wealth of experience from the NGO and public sectors and currently serves as CEO of the Asylum Seekers Centre. He has played a key role in reform, including the successful removal of juveniles from adult prisons in Queensland. His contributions have been widely recognised with honours such as the Medal of the Order of Australia (2019), Queensland Local Hero (2019), and QUT’s Outstanding Community Services Alumnus award (2023). This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
