La forza dello sport: il basket in carrozzina per l’inclusione sociale | Alberto Cairo | TEDxForlì
Nel suo talk, Alberto Cairo racconta 35 anni in Afghanistan dedicati alla riabilitazione e all’inclusione delle persone con disabilità. Dallo scetticismo iniziale alla creazione di squadre di basket in carrozzina, la sua storia mostra come lo sport possa sfidare limiti fisici, pregiudizi e divieti culturali. Un appello a riconoscere lo sport come strumento di emancipazione e riscatto, anche nei contesti più difficili. Alberto Cairo lavora in Afghanistan in progetti per la riabilitazione fisica e il reinserimento sociale delle persone con disabilità e per le donne. Collabora con il Comitato Internazionale della Croce Rossa (CICR) ed è il presidente di NOVE Caring Humans, una delle poche organizzazioni italiane presenti a Kabul. Laureato in Giurisprudenza e diplomato in fisioterapia, ha lavorato in Sudan e Sarajevo. Dal 1990 vive e opera in Afghanistan, testimone di cinque regimi successivi. Ha scritto per Einaudi Storie da Kabul e Mosaico Afghano. Un terzo libro, un romanzo, sarà presto nelle librerie. Collabora con il quotidiano La Repubblica.

- 13:16Nem érdekelnek a jegesmedvék | Anilla Till | TEDxLibertyBridgeWomenMit jelent ma környezetvédőnek lenni? Egy tökéletes, hibátlan életmód vagy inkább a sok apró, tökéletlen, de tudatos döntés?

- 16:58A szövet | dr. Márta Tkacsik | TEDxLibertyBridgeWomenA digitális világ sikeres építésétől kezdve a regeneratív gazdaságig Tkacsik Márta története a mintázatok, összefüggések és szövetek világáról szól. Egykor az internet fejlődésének úttörője volt, ma pedig az élővilág összetett rendszerét kutatja és építi. Előadásában arról beszél, hogyan fonódik össze a természet és az emberi élet, miért veszélyes a modern világ „optimalizált cérnaszálakon” lógó rendszere, és hogyan találhatunk vissza egy természetes, ellenállóbb életmódhoz. Egy inspiráló gondolatébresztő arról, hogy a legkisebb élőlényeknek is óriási szerepük van – bennünk és körülöttünk. / From building the digital world to cultivating a regenerative farm—Márta Tkacsik’s story is about patterns, connections, and woven structures. Once a pioneer in the development of the Internet, today she explores and nurtures the intricate systems of the natural world. In her talk, she delves into how human life and nature are interwoven, why the modern world’s “optimized threads” make us vulnerable, and how we can reclaim a more resilient, nature-connected way of living. An inspiring and thought-provoking journey into why even the smallest living beings play a vital role—both within us and around us. Dr. Tkacsik Márta elméleti matematikusként végzett Kassán, majd 23 évesen doktorált. Az elsők között foglalkozott számítógép-hálózatokkal és az akkor még alig ismert Internettel. Nagyvállalatoknak tervezett digitális hálózatokat, később üzleti folyamatok informatikai tervezésével foglalkozott. 12 éve teljesen hátrahagyta a digitális világot, és kizárólag az Élettel foglalkozik. Létrehozta a Patikakertet, egy biodiverz, vegyszermentes, regeneratív gazdaságot, ahol a természet sokszínűségét támogatva valódi, tápanyagdús élelmet állít elő. / Dr. Márta Tkacsik graduated in theoretical mathematics and earned her PhD at 23. She was among the first to work with computer networks and the then-unknown Internet, designing digital solutions for corporations. Twelve years ago, she left the digital world behind to fully embrace Life. She founded Patikakert, a biodiverse, chemical-free, regenerative farm dedicated to fostering nature’s richness and producing truly nutrient-dense food.
