Seven speakers from the La Jolla Country Day School community shared personal experiences related to “Agency, Resilience and Persistence,” the theme of the school’s inaugural TEDx event streamed live.
LJCDS junior Tavisha Khanna, 17, organized and moderated the April 30 event, inspired by the school’s November 2019 “Human Library,” which gave speakers a platform from which to share their interests.
TEDx events are independently planned local gatherings providing presentations based on the format of TED, an organization that offers talks and conferences on a variety of topics.
