TEDxYouth@DPSMIS continued to be the longest running youth event in
Qatar after its fifth edition was held on 7th November, 2019. The event
was held at the DPS Auditorium, with several esteemed guests and nearly
a hundred participants attending the event. |
The four prolific speakers used the dais to reach out to the most
thoughtful members of the younger generation. Shahnawaz Zali, an Oscar
nominee, spoke about the power of the medium of film to address social
issues. Ahmed Mohamed detailed his experience as a victim of racism and
how he grew from it. Sanah Thakur talked about the fearlessly realising
one's ambitions, while Balakarthiga Muruganantham showed the entire
process of a book's journey from a mind to the shelves. |
The event remains one of the crucial platforms for
inspiration and discussion; participants were granted the opportunity to
interact with all the speakers and dive into their ideas in greater
depth and clarity. |
