ROB WIJNBERG - the unknown will lead the future
Rob Wijnberg is a philosopher, journalist and chief editor of the Dutch newspaper NRC Next. But that's not all. Wijnberg is more than just a journalist; he leads the way by expressing the value(s) of future generations and defending absolute freedom of speech.
Our world is facing enormous energy problems with fossil fuels becoming exhausted. For days on end thousands of people are dying of starvation. Nevertheless, the youth doesnít seem to care. Wijnberg is someone who does not want to judge this so-called ëGeneration Yí and decided to look closely into the world of the youth that doesnít seem to be interested in anything anymore.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event.

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)
