TEDxO'Porto - Nancy Frederick e Teresa Pereira - This is a good world. July 11, 2011

Favorite:

Teresa was born in Lisbon after the April Revolution in a country beggining it's european adhesion. Those were Portugal's international steps after the Descobrimentos age, when we reached India and settled an entire new world geographic map. TIAGW is about building an emotional one. Teresa grew up between Portugal and South Africa, in the last years of Apartheid, fact that influenced her vision and passion about "others". Her first graduation was in Special Education and is now attending Psychology. She´s working on other projects related to entrepreneurship, such as TEDXYouth and TIAGW, while working on CADIn (Center For Child Development - www.cadin.net) as a priority. She chooses to work with teams as families, investing in a meaningfull activity everyday. Likes troubles, struggles, schools, adults, "little people" and new ways of thinking about them. Her passions are about ADHD, new technologies, social networks and the value of time. She founded CADIn&out 4 years ago, returning to school on a daily basis in search of new ways of work and approaching challenges that everyone feels as an extra pressure these days. She sees everyone as an added value, any challenge as an opportunity in disguise, keeping one goal in mind: always be better than yesterday.
