In Australia, Bee Orsini is the Liaison for The Salvation Army's Education and Outreach Project to raise awareness of homeless youth. She knows the reality of being homeless and was often in dangerous and self-destructive situations.
Her goal is to inspire other young people who have had similar circumstances to get the help they need to change their lives for the better -- and to inspire all Australians to take action towards ending youth homelessness in their own communities.
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)
