This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Would you believe it if you found a Russian-trained ballet dancer running an education program for street children in Guinea? What if you received an email from a homeless child in Rwanda who has never gone to school? These are stories of children who discovered they "matter" through Rebecca Davis Dance Company programs.


Fulbright from the US to Russia, 2004. Founder, Rebecca Davis Dance Company. With degrees in dance and entrepreneurship, Rebecca is passionate about working towards ending genocide. She built an organization to create dance and educational programs for street children and underserved youth in post-conflict and developing countries, including Rwanda, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Guinea.


About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
