Putting a personal face to some of the world’s most pressing issues
TEDxChange, an event co-hosted by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and TED, takes place Sept. 20. TEDxChange marks the anniversary of the Millennium Development Goals.
Ten years in, the question remains: Where do we stand in the work to save and improve lives around the world? And what will the future hold?
The future isn’t fixed. We can all have a hand in making a better world. To coincide with TEDxChange and the 10th anniversary of the Millennium Development Goals, the Gates Foundation is asking you the following question: What is the future we will make?
They want you to help put a personal face to some of the world’s most pressing issues and envision a future where every person has the opportunity to live a healthy and productive life.
