Theme: Stepping Stones

As a community, we strive for a pathway and common ground in everyday life. We want a better world for our children and for our community. The only way we can have all of that is by creating stepping stones between the rivers and boarders between us. At TEDxSTIUHUAHIN we strive to lay the foundation of these stepping stones by having young fire souls get their chance to speak of a better tomorrow. The event will be organized by the Bachelor of Art in English at Stamford International University, with speakers from all walks of our community.
