Never Again? Turning A Promise Into Action Against Genocide | Vung Lian | TEDxJenks Youth
In my TEDx talk, I hope to not just initiate a conversation, but raise awareness and inspire action because I believe we all have a part to play in shaping the future. In other words, how can one ignore such reprehensible acts that happen right before their eyes? Hi! I’m Vung Lian, a senior at Jenks HS and I’m so beyond thrilled to share with you something that’s been poking my mind lately. Since 2021, lives were interrupted by senseless killings in the same place that those in positions of power have already caused lifelong emotional and physical scars.

- 13:54Curare per interrompere i sistemi di oppressione | Andi Ngaso | TEDxPisogneNato in un sistema di oppressione, figlio di una frattura e di una migrazione continua. Andi Nganso, speaker di TEDxPisogne, porta sul palco una voce che attraversa sofferenze. Sbarcato in Italia nel 2006, si è trovato in un sistema dove la cittadinanza è un privilegio. E allora viene da chiedersi: come si fa a parlare di eredità, se la tua identità non viene riconosciuta? La sua risposta è rivoluzionaria: scegliere la cura. Curare significa interrompere il sistema e rendere la cura collettiva uno strumento di resistenza. Andi Nganso è un medico, imprenditore e narratore di mondi. È nato in Camerun, è cresciuto tra migrazioni e sogni, e oggi vive in Italia, dove cura corpi, idee e comunità. Da anni si muove tra ospedali, frontiere e festival culturali, cercando di restituire dignità a ciò che spesso viene ignorato: le storie. È Medico di urgenza emergenza e esperto di salute globale. È volontario della Croce Rossa Italiana, con cui lavora in contesti di emergenza sanitaria e cooperazione internazionale. Ma è anche il fondatore del Festival DiverCity, una piattaforma che intreccia arte, design, decolonizzazione e giustizia sociale.
