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)
Beautiful view on cultural narratives and human rights. Powerful illustration of an abyss between the West and the developing world, which echo differences in sustainability movement, climate change and other environmental protection topics.
Congrats Miss Neha Reddy , your speech is really very nice.

Wow Ethiopia is the great country in social and anthropology
Thank you for sharing research observation and experiences ! Great work and wish you all the best. Like your way of reflection and interpretation.
Great speech and I was very interested in the various perspectives that Neha presented and I managed to extract some arguments and examples for my Global Politics essays!! 😝
Great speech
Thank you for this. It's really enlightening to hear the voices (even if second hand) of FGM victims. Their voice is almost always missing in Western discourse on the topic.
the case on the ground over speech in ethiopia
Great work ! Yet, what your research has not uncovered or did not ask is why most city dwellers or the elite of Ethiopian society were able to abandon the practice of FGM? I believe the great equalizer of all circumstances is education and education alone.
nonetheless Great speech!
Why is the video title so non specific? No hate for this specific area of research but the title doesn’t suggest anything about the content of the video. Kind of annoying
right!
Is there no transcript for this?
U don't take the inconveniences of a child I no how it is and how it's effected my life
ONLY HUMAN RIGHTS INDIA KOLKATA
To answer these girls' questions about why we feel so strongly about this issue, I'd say it's primarily due to gender inequality. If they believe that depriving a girl of pleasure will prevent her from making the wrong choice in a future husband or cheating on her spouse. Then it would only be fair to "protect" these men as well as the girls, which is why I believe the argument that it is to protect and do the best for the girls is completely invalid and stems from centuries of sexism.
When you actually thought she was Ethiopian 'cause a lot of Ethiopians look Indian
Ethopia never been colonized
it has for couple of years in the 1930s by Italians but definitely nothing compared to other African countries.
