The TED story
Knowledge sharing is a life mission that I established for myself, personally and professionally. Not sharing knowledge, especially when it comes to science, always seemed absurd to me. I believe this is what motivated me most to organize a TEDx event. Since I first saw a TED Talk, I decided that one day I would be on the other side of the screen. Then, in 2019 there I was, organizing my first TEDx event: TEDxUFPR!
