TEDx brings the spirit of TED’s mission of ideas worth spreading to local communities around the globe. TEDx events are organized by curious individuals who seek to discover ideas and spark conversations in their own community.

This year, we’re hosting the second edition of TEDxParklands, an event that brings together the community for an unforgettable experience. Our theme, Under The Blue Nairobi Sky, is a culmination of well-thought ideas and stories by extraordinary individuals, closely knit by their differences and similarities of shared experiences in the city. If you’re wondering if the TEDx events are for you, here are a few reasons we believe you should attend at least once in your lifetime, and why the TEDxParklands would be a great place to start:
