Founder of Unmarked Streets, a non-profit in Guatemala that trains women to build and sustain small business, Andrea Stachnik is a social entrepreneur on a mission to broaden traditional definitions of development. In her TEDxMontereyWomen talk, Andrea describes how a combination of microfinance, micro-consignment, and online learning is offering young women in Guatemala new pathways for success and financial independence.

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)
