Moving from epidemic response to epidemic preparedness | Dr. Ifeanyi Nsofor | TEDxPortHarcourt


Currently, there are more than 64 million confirmed cases of COVID-19, above 44 recoveries and almost 1.5 million deaths. The pandemic is surging in the U.S. and Europe. However, sub-Saharan African countries are responding better to COVID-19. This has confounded scientists and thought leaders. The answer lies in Africa’s experience responding to different infectious disease outbreaks simultaneously and investments in epidemic preparedness. In this talk, Dr. Ifeanyi M. Nsofor shares his experience leading EpiAFRIC’s evaluation of African Union’s response to the 2014/2015 Ebola outbreak in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. Lessons learnt from that response led to the establishment of the African Centres for Disease Control to coordinate efforts across the continent and also increased investments in epidemic preparedness by member states. He draws examples from the work of Nigeria Centre for Disease Control to show that epidemic preparedness is more cost-effective and makes more business sense than waiting to just respond to an infectious disease outbreak. He shares lessons from Nigeria’s COVID-19 response and how they should guide future epidemic preparedness. He urges western nations to learn from Africa’s and Asia’s COVID-19 response. He reminds all that a future pandemic is inevitable. Therefore, the time to prepare is now. A graduate of the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine is a Senior New Voices Fellow at the Aspen Institute and a Senior Atlantic Fellow for Health Equity at George Washington University.
Hes the CEO of EpiAFRIC and Director, Policy and Advocacy at Nigeria Health Watch. Since 2018, the #PreventEpidemicsNaija project has been advocating for increased budgetary allocation for epidemic preparedness in Nigeria.
As a thought Leader in Global Health, Ifeanyi has written over 68 opinion pieces with a global reach — his piece titled, “Why an Ebola Vaccine is Not Enough” has appeared in 18 publications in 16 countries; and published in 8 languages; appeared in over 4.3 million print copies; been seen over 36,000 times on Project Syndicate social media channels. In March 2020, Ifeanyi spoke at “Exploring Media Ecosystems Conference” at the Samberg Center of Massachusetts Institute of Technology and was recognized by Onalytica to be among Coronavirus Top 100 healthcare professionals globally.

Школа - не поле для битвы | Тамара Эйдельман | TEDxSadovoeRing


Тамара Эйдельман больше 30 лет преподает в московских школах и за свою жизнь была свидетелем и участником множества конфликтных ситуаций. Ученики издеваются над учителями, учителя выстраивают авторитарный режим, пресекая любое неповиновение, родители мечутся между теми и другими — это словно война всех против всех. И мы к ней, кажется, уже привыкли.

Но Тамара Натановна уверена, что в школе не должно быть места агрессии, издевательствам и унижениям, потому что школа — это не поле для битвы.
Тамара Эйдельман — потомственный историк, уникальный педагог, рассказчик и путешественник. Заслуженный учитель России. Больше 30 лет Тамара Натановна преподает историю в московских школах.

Далай-лама. Учения о преобразовании ума. День 1


В мае 1999 года Его Святейшество Далай-лама провел трехдневные учения по произведению «Восемь строф о преобразовании ума» в конференц-зале Уэмбли в Лондоне.

«Восемь строф о преобразовании ума» — один из наиболее важных текстов из категории «лоджонг» в тибетской духовной литературе, что в буквальном переводе означает «преобразование ума». Далай-лама называет это небольшое произведение, написанное тибетским учителем XI века Лангри Тангпой, одним из главных источников своего вдохновения.

Среди основных тем учений категории «лоджонг» — воспитание сострадания, равностного отношения к себе и другим, позитивного мышления и преобразование неблагоприятных ситуаций в условия, способствующие духовному росту

"Как сделать мир лучше? Руководство для чайников" | Камила Роллан | TEDxShahterovAve


Работая волонтером в Обществе Красного Полумесяца, Камила организовывала для детей с особыми потребностями развлекательные представления. Однажды, после выступления, она решила снять костюм клоуна и поговорить с их матерями, и обнаружила, что будучи изолированными от общества, они лишаются многих возможностей, которые мы, зачастую, принимаем как должное.
Так возникла идея — обучать детей с особыми потребностями и с инвалидностью вместе с обычными детьми, давая всем равные возможности общения, творческого и эмоционального развития.
В своем выступлении Камила делится руководством как сумела открыть первый в Казахстане центр инклюзивного образования и, тем самым способствовала решению проблемы. Камила — специалист и активист по продвиженю иклюзии и защиты прав ребенка. Она является основателем центра инклюзивного образования “Education For All”, нацеленного на расширение доступа детей и молодежи с особыми потребностями к обучению и трудоустройству. В 2018 году она вошла в список Форбс «30 моложе 30», а ее проект был признан лучшим по мнению Британского Совета, компаний Шеврон и ПрайсуотерхаусКуперс.

Why I, as a black man, attend KKK rallies. | Daryl Davis | TEDxNaperville


A chance encounter with members of the Ku Klux Klan led black musician Daryl Davis on a quest to determine the source of the hate. His unorthodox, yet simple approach, has wielded surprising results and just might be the solution for all racial discourse.

Daryl Davis graduated from Howard University with a degree in Jazz. As a pianist, vocalist, and guitarist, he performs nationally and internationally with The Daryl Davis Band. He has also worked with such notables as Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley’s Jordanaires, The Legendary Blues Band, and many others.

In 1983, A chance occurrence after one of his performances led him to befriend a member of the Ku Klux Klan. This eventually led Daryl to become the first black author to travel the country interviewing KKK leaders and members, all detailed in his book, Klan-Destine Relationships. Today, Daryl owns numerous Klan robes and hoods, given to him by active members who became his friends and renounced the organization.

Since his journey began, Davis has joined an all-white country band, attended KKK rallies, and accepted a “certificate of friendship” from the Traditionalist American Knights of the KKK. He’s even the godfather of former Klan Imperial Wizard Roger Kelly’s granddaughter.

Davis has received the Elliott-Black and MLK awards as well as numerous other local and national awards for his work in race relations, and is often sought by media outlets as a consultant on the KKK and race relations. He is also an actor with stage and screen credits, appearing in the critically acclaimed HBO police drama, The Wire, and most recently, as the subject of the documentary Accidental Courtesy, which filmed his real life encounters with Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazi leaders as he helps to dismantle racism across the United States
