Tech Entrepreneur Mike Dawson has been geeking out in Afghanistan since 2006. Mike and his team recently developed Ustad Mobile (Mobile Teacher), an application that puts an interactive version of Afghanistan's national literacy curriculum on basic feature phones that Afghans can purchase at affordable prices in any bazaar in the country.

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)
