Hello TEDx'ers!
TED2014 starts tonight - and 2014 TED Prize winner Charmian Gooch will take the TED stage on Tuesday to share her big wish with the world.
The big announcement will take place on Tuesday, March 18th during Session 4 "Wish" and that session will be live streamed to the world for free. You will be able to watch it live here, so mark your calendars for Tuesday, March 18th, 6:00-7:45pm Pacific time. (Many of you have already signed up to host TEDxLive events, and we're excited to have you watch this wish revealed alongside your TEDx community.)
Since the heart of the TED Prize is a wish - a bold call to galvanize global action on a pressing issue - we will be looking at you, the TEDx community to help make Charmian's wish become a reality, even before it's announced! We're giving you an early chance to commit to helping this cause by asking YOU if you're interested in bringing the issue of corruption to your TEDx event this year.
If you are interested in supporting this wish in your community, simply send an email saying "We're in!" to 20...@tedprize.com, along with your name, location and event name by Friday, March 14th.
Those TEDx communities that have made a pledge to support this wish will be celebrated on stage at TED during the wish reveal! We will also be collecting pledges to the wish in real time next Tuesday night.
We can't wait to work with you all on this TED Prize. Stay tuned for a brand new toolkit and more info on how to support this wish once the details have been publicly announced.
Thanks in advance for all of your support.
Best,
The TEDx + TED Prize teams
