TEDxYerevanWomen is coming soon!

We’re delighted to announce the TEDxYerevanWomen event: a news as fabulous as this year’s theme – “Learning to Interrupt.” This year’s event is even more prominent in that it is not only the first TEDxYerevanWomen event, but also our very first virtual one!

As young girls, at home we’re taught to “hold back our opinions,” in the street – it’s “keep quiet not to get in trouble,” in school – “raise a hand to speak up.“

Be respectful. Be polite. Listen. Do not interfere.

We grow into young women, with interesting careers and multiple opportunities, but in our hearts we often continue to keep our opinions to ourselves and stay quiet when we are thinking of speaking out, letting others speak first.

So if you have ever felt like you could be shouting and still no one would hear you, if you ever wished you had grabbed the opportunity to …

TEDxYerevanSalon announcement!

TEDxYerevanSaon is back for 2019 with theme of “Anatomy of change.”

We have been a lucky nation to experience one of the most beautiful transitions in our history – The Velvet revolution in Armenia. Our nation today celebrates the renaissance of democracy in our society.

But how to make this change sustainable, so that our citizens could feel the impact of it in their everyday life? How to integrate the best practices of democracy from leading and developed countries into our institutional leadership practices and decision-making processes? How to attract talented young professionals from all innovative fields into public administration and how to bring women into politics and leadership positions?

Join us for the day as we will uncover answers to some of these questions at TEDxYerevanSalon event. Our speakers, who represent our innovative and creative young generation, will share their bold and radically honest perspectives on changes and progress.…

TEDxYerevan is back on stage for 2018

TEDxYerevan is back on stage for 2018 and the theme of TEDxYerevan 2018 is “The Otherness of Reality.”

The present hears the echoes of the past silence and is ready to speak up. This year, at TEDxYerevan, we will mostly showcase women and youth stories.

Even though women and youth around the world design and impact the future, they still go unheard and remain unseen most of the time.

The recent Velvet Revolution in Armenia was a great example of the impact, women and youth can have on our country.

That is why this year TEDxYerevan is inspired by the Velvet Revolution.

This time our speakers will share some of the most unheard stories and reflections of their own experiences of the Velvet Revolution and their visions of our future.

We are delighted to announce that TEDxYerevan 2018 will take place on September 16 at Tumo Center for Creative Technologies.…
