लोकतंत्र की रक्षक: मीडिया की जिम्मेदारी और प्रभाव | Vineet Kumar | TEDxDFBEDU
इस विचारोत्तेजक TEDx टॉक में, विनीत कुमार मीडिया, लोकतंत्र और समाज के बीच के जटिल संबंधों पर चर्चा करते हैं। वह मीडिया और संचार के विरोधाभासों को उजागर करते हुए बताते हैं कि कैसे पत्रकारिता जनमत को आकार देती है और सामान्य ज्ञान को प्रभावित करती है। विनीत ने चॉपर मीडिया के अपने अनुभव साझा किए, जिसमें भारत में टेलीविजन और रेडियो की अद्वितीय भूमिका को रेखांकित किया गया है। उनका यह टॉक मीडिया को सामाजिक बदलाव के एक सशक्त माध्यम के रूप में स्थापित करता है और लोकतंत्र को मजबूत करने में इसकी महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका को उजागर करता है।आज के डिजिटल युग में, मीडिया ने एक व्यापक रूप ले लिया है। सोशल मीडिया प्लेटफॉर्म्स ने हर व्यक्ति को अपनी आवाज़ उठाने का मौका दिया है, जिससे लोकतंत्र और भी समावेशी हो गया है। हालांकि, इसके साथ ही जिम्मेदारी भी बढ़ गई है। फर्जी खबरों, प्रोपेगैंडा और पक्षपातपूर्ण रिपोर्टिंग के खतरों के बीच, मीडिया को अपनी भूमिका सही ढंग से निभाने की आवश्यकता है। विनीत इस बात पर जोर देते हैं कि मीडिया न केवल सच्चाई को उजागर करने का काम करता है, बल्कि समाज को शिक्षित और सशक्त बनाने में भी महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका निभाता है।मीडिया का असली उद्देश्य केवल सूचना देना नहीं, बल्कि समाज को जागरूक करना और उसे बेहतर भविष्य की ओर ले जाना है। यह लोकतंत्र का वह आईना है जो समाज की सच्चाई को दिखाता है और उसे बदलने की प्रेरणा देता है। विनीत के इस टॉक से हमें यह सीख मिलती है कि मीडिया की शक्ति को सही दिशा में इस्तेमाल करके हम एक न्यायपूर्ण, समावेशी और प्रगतिशील समाज का निर्माण कर सकते हैं।यह TEDx टॉक Department of Business Economics, University of Delhi, South Campus पर रिकॉर्ड किया गया था, जहाँ विचारों और प्रेरणादायक कहानियों को मंच मिलता है। Mr. Vineet Kumar is a distinguished media scholar, author, and academic, renowned for his expertise in the intersection of language, media, and culture in contemporary India.

- 15:09Kiszabadulni a történetek fogságából | Diána Vonnák | TEDxLibertyBridgeWomenMi történik, amikor egy város, egy ország, egy élet egyik pillanatról a másikra idegenné válik? Amikor a valóság ismert keretei széthullanak, és a jövő egy sötét, ismeretlen szakadékká válik? Egy költő története, aki egy reggel elhagyta az otthonát – és soha nem térhetett vissza. De honnan tudjuk, hogy mikor veszítettük el azt, ami addig a miénk volt? És mit mondhatunk, amikor nincs megfelelő szó arra, ami történik? Egy előadás az emlékezésről, az értelmezésről és arról, hogyan próbáljuk rendezni a világunkat akkor is, amikor az darabokra hullik. / What happens when a city, a country, or a life suddenly becomes unrecognizable? When the familiar structures of reality collapse, and the future turns into a dark, unknowable void? This is the story of a poet who left home one morning—only to realize he could never return. But how do we recognize the moment we lose what was once ours? And what can we say when there are no words for what is happening? A talk about memory, interpretation, and the ways we try to make sense of a world that is falling apart. Egy évtizede dolgozik antropológusként, főleg a nagy politikai-gazdasági váltások, történeti traumák öröksége és emlékezete foglalkoztatja. Ukrajnára specializálódott, a 2014-es donbaszi háború óta rendszeresen kutat az országban, ahol éveket töltött, 2022 óta is aktívan visszajár. Első könyve Látlak címmel jelent meg 2021-ben, felkerült a Libri-díj rövidlistájára, és elnyerte a legjobb első kötetnek járó Margó-díjat. / Diána Vonnák has been working as an anthropologist for a decade, mainly focusing on major political-economical changes and historical traumas.

- 15:23Fare teatro in carcere abbassa la recidiva da 68% a 7% | Mireya Cannata, Carlo Imparato | TEDxForlìMireya Cannata e Carlo Imparato hanno costruito il primo teatro in Europa all'interno di un carcere, realizzandolo ex novo grazie al contributo diretto dei detenuti. Un'idea apparentemente folle e piena di ostacoli, ma così potente da trasformare il carcere in un palcoscenico di speranza. In questo talk, raccontano come la bellezza dell'arte possa abbattere ogni barriera, fisica e sociale, e cambiare davvero delle vite. Mireya Cannata e Carlo Imparato hanno costruito, insieme al regista Sandro Baldacci, il primo teatro in Europa dentro un carcere, realizzato ex novo con il contributo degli stessi detenuti. Un’idea apparentemente folle, utopistica e piena di ostacoli. Mireya Cannata e Carlo Imparato lavorano con i detenuti della casa circondariale di Marassi a Genova da oltre 20 anni. La loro idea è semplice: il carcere è percepito come un luogo brutto e desolante, mentre il teatro rappresenta la bellezza e la creatività. Attraverso il bello si può portare nuova luce in un ambiente altrimenti oscuro. Con 20 spettacoli, oltre 500 detenuti coinvolti, circa 80.000 spettatori e numerosi corsi di formazione nei mestieri dello spettacolo, Mireya Cannata e Carlo Imparato testimoniano che la bellezza dell'arte può davvero abbattere ogni barriera, fisica e sociale, e trasformare vite.
