This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Amma Asante is the director of the Hollywood hit movie Belle and found that working in Hollywood where only 0.4% of directors are black females, she has been under pressure to live up to a definition bestowed upon her; one that did not match own own self definition. A passionate speaker, Amma asks us to consider that we are all a combination of many worlds put together and when those worlds meet, progress can follow.

BAFTA award winning writer-director Amma Asante began her career as a child actress, appearing as a regular in the popular British school drama Grange Hill.

She fronted the «Just Say No» campaign of the 1980s and was one of nine Grange Hill children to take it to the Reagan White House.

Asantes 2004 feature film, A Way of Life, was her directorial debut and garnered her 17 international awards for her writing and directing including newcomer awards for writing and directing from the BFI London Film Festival, The Times Breakthrough Artist of the Year and the prestigious South Bank Show Awards. Asante’s second feature film, Belle was released in cinemas in 2014. The film drew widespread acclaim and is the third highest grossing independent film of 2014. In January this year Asante was announced as one of Varietys ‘10 Directors to Watch.’ Follow her on Twitter @AmmaAsante

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.

Stephane is a one of its kind explorator, one of the few remaining today, member of the French Society of Explorators. His explorations are as much geographic as technical, scientific and he puts himself, his body and his skills to the service of research, in a world afraid of risks and progress.

Nous avons été prof de français. Sommés de nous offusquer des fautes dorthographe, nous avons été pris pour les curés de la langue. Nous avons écrit pour dédramatiser, pour réfléchir ensemble et puis aussi parce quon a toujours pensé que lAcadémie Française avait un vrai potentiel comique.
«Les deux belges qui veulent simplifier la langue française»: tout est faux dans cette phrase. Pas «simplifier» mais bien faire preuve desprit critique, se demander si tout se vaut dans notre orthographe. Pas deux belges, mais bien deux curieux qui veulent transmettre le travail des linguistes de toute la francophonie, pas même la «langue française», seulement son orthographe. Car lorthographe, cest pas la langue, cest juste le code graphique qui permet de la retranscrire. Passion pour les uns, chemin de croix pour les autres, elle est sacrée pour tous. Et pourtant, il ne sagit peut-être que dun énorme malentendu. Arnaud Hoedt et Jérôme Piron sont linguistes de formation. Ils ont vécu 25 ans sans se connaître, mais c’était moins bien. Ils ont ensuite enseigné pendant 15 ans dans la même école. Quand Arnaud participe à la rédaction des programmes de français en Belgique, Jérôme se spécialise en médiation culturelle. En 2016, ils écrivent et mettent en scène le spectacle « La Convivialité », au Théâtre National de Bruxelles. Ce spectacle conférence qui traite de la question du rapport dogmatique à l’orthographe tourne depuis 3 ans dans toute la francophonie. Dans la foulée, ils publient l’ouvrage « La faute de l’orthographe », aux éditions Textuel. Ils se définissent comme suit: « Linguistes dilet(t)antes. Pédagogues en (robe de) chambre. Tentent de corriger le participe passé. Écrivent des trucs. Vrais-Faux Comédiens. Bouffeurs d’Académicien ».
A la question « est-ce que ça se dit? «, Arnaud et Jérôme répondent invariablement « oui, tu viens de le faire ». This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
