- 9:12Uncovering your true self, Discovering Connections | Prince Bejoy Jose | TEDxAl Diyafah High SchoolMy speech concentrates on one pivotal, yet incredibly misunderstood word. Connections. In my opinion, life is a random assortment of dots decided only by God, and we as humans are tasked with finding successful connections to tie these dots together. These connections can be as mundane as a paperclip, or a true friend who will stay with you through thick and thin. I am a Diyafah alumnus and a first-year college student in Dubai, pursuing a degree in IT and cybersecurity. It seems very peculiar, but the thing I enjoy the most is just helping people around me, along with a few lesser interests such as reading, singing, and debating. The satisfaction I get from helping someone out, be it a big or small task, is unexplainable, and it drives just to help that one more individual and, consequently, make the world a better place just one at a time.

- 9:07‘E’, The Secret to Rock N’ Roll | Iliya Lionel Dassanayake | TEDxAl Diyafah High SchoolMy idea dwells into where the letter " E" is found in human life. It stems into Empathy, Education, Exploration, Empowerment and Energy which are the 5 fundamental driving forces for the advancement of humankind This idea will tap into both linguistic and universal values in what the letter "E" can stand for. What it means musically as well; Most pop and rock guitar music is written in the key of " E" for strange but scientifically explainable reasons as well.

- 7:05The Economics of Espionage | Taman Thomas | TEDxAl Diyafah High SchoolThe Economics of Espionage: Spies, Secrets, and the Cost of Betrayal offers a fresh perspective by linking espionage to its economic consequences. While often seen through the lens of security and geopolitics, this approach reveals how stolen trade secrets, cyber-attacks, and corporate intelligence influence global markets, drive innovation and affect GDP. It challenges conventional views by presenting espionage as a hidden driver of economic disruption and growth, highlighting its dual impact as a threat and a catalyst for technological advancement and policy shifts. I am a high school student passionate about global politics, economics, and innovation. My involvement in Model United Nations has sharpened my critical thinking skills and deepened my understanding of international relations. I look forward to sharing insights on the connection between technology, economic stability, and ethics during my TEDx Talk.
