How is being a kid an advantage? Gaveesh is a curious explorer of both the world and the universe. He is already charting his own course—whether it’s discovering new places while traveling, mastering a new song on the piano, or devouring mozzarella sticks like they’re going out of style.
Gaveesh likes a challenge, and he taught himself to play La Campanella by Franz Liszt on the piano at just 8 years old – using muscle memory alone (because why not?). His drive for excellence doesn’t stop there; at 10, he won 1st Runner-Up in the Tweens Category of the Young Entrepreneur X Factor, snagging some awesome prizes along the way!Gaveesh enjoys gaming and can be found creating gaming videos, strumming away on his guitar, or diving into the mysteries of space (he’s convinced that aliens are real). A firm believer that the sky is NOT the limit, Gaveesh is ready to take on the TEDx Youth stage with the same energy he brings to every adventure—whether it’s a new chord, a new level, or a new planet to explore.

- 16:27We Prepare to Survive Disasters But Not to Cope With What Comes After | Kate Brady | TEDxUNSW SalonNatural disasters not only impact those who are directly affected by their sheer destructible potential, but they also create aftershocks that weaken individuals and communities across the globe. Dr Kate Brady sheds light on an issue that we, as a community, are far too often ignorant of: the fact that even after the earthquake has passed, even after the tallest wave has crashed, even after the storm has settled, the disaster continues. A self-proclaimed “disaster recovery nerd”, Dr. Kate Brady has spent over a decade shaping how Australia – and the world – thinks about life after crisis. From leading as a National Recovery Adviser for Australian Red Cross Emergency Services to working as a Senior Research Fellow at UNSW’s for How We Survive initiative, Dr. Brady brings sharp insight into what has long been overlooked: the sobering reality of disaster recovery.
