About us

Our objective is to make each and every individual in the audience believe that change comes with open minds, with the determination to create it, and that every endeavour taken to make our society a better place to live in is very significant. Through TEDxNITTrichy we aim to introduce some of the most fascinating thinkers and doers to a world stage. The individuals involved with TEDxNITTrichy have a passion for creativity, self-development and experience sharing. We believe in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and ultimately, the world. 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.) TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. Started as a four-day conference in California 26 years ago, TED has grown to support those world-changing ideas with multiple initiatives. At TED, the world's leading thinkers and doers are asked to give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes. Talks are then made available, free, at TED.com. TED speakers have included Bill Gates, Jane Goodall, Elizabeth Gilbert, Sir Richard Branson, Benoit Mandelbrot, Philippe Starck, Isabel Allende and former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown. Two major TED events are held each year: The TED Conference takes place every spring in Long Beach, California (along with a parallel conference, TEDActive, in Palm Springs), and TEDGlobal is held each summer in Edinburgh, Scotland.

    Late Nights in the middle of June?? 1 in 10 men experience depression or anxiety, less than half receive treatment 🩺 . This June, as we observe Men's Mental Health Month, let's prioritize self-care and break down stigmas surrounding men's mental well being. We’re discussing mental health more than we ever have before and we’re all learning better ways to support each other. But we may often underreport men’s mental health, with men not reaching out for the support they need. And that’s when Men’s mental Health Awareness Month comes in, bringing attention to the very same subject. Many men are taught to believe that being a man entails being tough, “strong”, unwavering and self-sufficient. These stigmas, as well as toxic masculinity generally, create an environment in which individuals are afraid to speak up about their mental health or accept their diagnoses. While it’s more acceptable for men to express their emotions and get help than it used to be, it’s still important that we address the ongoing stigma that men shouldn’t need mental health support. Talk with the men in your lives, and if you’re experiencing any mental health difficulties, there are many places you can go to for support- you’re not alone, and it doesn’t make you less of a man. #mentalhealth #men #tedx #talk
