TEDxURI brings big ideas to the world stage through the inspirational voices of our community and beyond, and our speakers challenge us to think bigger than ourselves, participate in shaping the future, and do our part in protecting the planet.

With this vision in mind, TEDxURI 2022 focuses on a recipe for hope.

We are living in very challenging times and it’s all too easy to go down a rabbit hole of despair. But it is time to lift our heads up. Let the warm sun shine on us and the fresh air fill our lungs. Around every corner, there is hope. Hope for a new day, a new beginning, a new chance.

This year’s featured speakers share how they stay hopeful in a time of uncertainty. You will hear about their strategies to remain optimistic and explain how they motivate others to do the same. Additional thoughts include the presenter’s hope for the future as it pertains to themselves, their community, or the world.

TEDxURI 2022 happened Saturday, April 2, 2022.

Venue

TEDxURI will be held at the Richard E. Beaupre Center for Chemical and Forensic Science at the University of Rhode Island’s main campus in Kingston.
