TEDxAthens 2022: The Great Unknown

TEDxAthens turns 11, and just like every 11-year-old out there (well, maybe not nowadays to be honest, but let us have this one), it’s asking the big questions by tackling the Great Unknown. Can that be defined, we wonder? Can it be approached by notable speakers in a talk conference, even if it is the biggest one out there? Is the Great Unknown of a lasting nature or does it shift, and turn, and change with each generation? What once felt great and unknown to us, may not be on the list of a Gen Zer, we feel. You don’t have to come down that existential rollercoaster with us. TEDx knows how to make it all sound much more simple.

There’s a lot of info that still hasn’t been announced for the event, but we’ve got a first batch of speakers; two-time Pulitzer Prize winning writer Jake Bernstein, Swedish erotic film director Erika Lust, award-winning journalist Amit Katwala and fiction writer and game designer Natalia Theodoridou will engage in talks about disability, sex, science, queerness and feminism among others. Hobnobbing over drinks at the after party? Of course. Watch this space for more info.
