"Ideas Worth Spreading" The philosophy behind TED and TEDx is “Ideas Worth Spreading”.

We are a group of like-minded individuals that share the common belief that every person should have the opportunity to fulfill their life purpose. Our mission at TEDxMontrealWomen is to raise consciousness and spread the understanding that we all have the power to make a difference no matter how small or big. It is when people are shown new perspectives that unexpected paths will appear. We are v

ery excited to announce that the theme for our next event is Daring Greatly, named after Brené Brown's latest book. She was inspired by Theodore Roosevelt’s quote:

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat”.
- Theodore Roosevelt 1910

On National Indigenous Peoples Day we would like to share past TEDxMontrealWomen talks from several of the extraordinary Indigenous women leaders with whom we have had the privilege of working: Nakuset Cree Nation, Skawennati, and AFN Yukon Regional Chief Kluane Adamek.

Today is a day to celebrate the rich diversity of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis cultures, a day to learn from Indigenous leaders, a day to reflect on the devastating impacts of colonialism-- both historical and present-- and a day to consider how each of us can take actions towards meaningful reconciliation.

We are sharing some resources by Indigenous authors and organizations as well to encourage further engagement and learning. Links are available in our bio/linktr.ee: https://linktr.ee/TEDxMW
