A great upcoming event in Toronto is TEDxIBYork. On November 11th, almost 500 people will gather at the Ontario Science Centre to hear 20 speakers give talks on a wide variety of topics – scientists, poets, explorers and more! Over 3000 schools around the world teach the IB curriculum, but have limited interaction with each other. We wanted to bring those students together for a global, idea-sharing experience. By adding in several hundred adults as well, we hope to mix together spark with experience, passion with knowledge, growth with renewal. Visit www.tedxibyork.com for more information.
