"TEDxWOMEN: Conversation Continues”

The "Russkiy Mir” Center was exceptionally fortunate to be selected this year as one of the organizers for this one-day bicoastal on-line event that was originally designed to promote the global conversation about how women and girls can reshape the future. Simultaneously, over 110 TEDxWomen events will be hosted by TEDx event Organizers in communities all around the world, including China, The Netherlands, Israel, Pakistan, Romania, South Africa, Lebanon and the United States. See more information, videos and links at:

TEDxWomen will live stream from the Paley Centers in New York and Los Angeles to the global TEDx community. Organizers of TEDxWomen events will watch the live-stream of TEDxWomen, and have the opportunity to host local speakers on women's issues. 

Besides watching the webcast of TEDxWomen, some of these events will incorporate local speakers, bringing local flavor to the global conversation. With session themes of resilience, relationships and rebirth — and ending with "reimagine” — the event will focus on how women and girls are shaping our shared future.
