Sara is a PhD student in neuroscience with a very strong commitment and motivation to increase access to education. The combination of her childhood in Mozambique, her previous experience as a teacher and the opportunity of being a student at University of Cambridge made her realise the central role universities can have in addressing the world's development needs. As a result of studying the potential of universities in the generation of social innovation, she co-founded SecondGO, a social start up that extends the educational opportunities of university students to others, and became the president of Beyond Profit, the social entrepreneurship society at Cambridge.

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)
