Tom Vellenga, from Heartland Democracy, talks about the importance of civic empowerment as a means to reach disengaged populations. The key is to ask questions and focus on how policy affects the student. Civic empowerment is a multipurpose tool that supports education and economy.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
