Moagi and Bokaba have been invited to deliver their talks ‘How can we stop racism in private schools’ and ‘How criticism affects people’s confidence.’

The TED-Ed weekend is an annual gathering of students from around the world who participate in TED-Ed Clubs and it is designed to amplify the voices of the next generation of TED. The TED-Ed team in New York has spent months reviewing hundreds of talks uploaded by clubs like Think Ahead's and have chosen a select group of passionate student speakers to present their TED-Ed Club talks live on the TED stage – including Moagi and Bokaba from South Africa.

The Think Ahead TED-Ed Club ran a 13-week public speaking curriculum prepared by TED to help participants from schools across Gauteng discover and develop their ideas to deliver their own TED-style talk. During the event at TED’s New York headquarters, participants will share inspiring performances, participate in hands-on workshops, and attend sessions of TED Talks. They will also deliver their talks in a newly created theatre housed at TED’s New York headquarters.
