Forever Young

Forever Young: two words with great appeal. Youth is often associated with outer beauty and fitness of body and mind. But Forever Young stands for more: it is also infinite renewal, zest for life, charisma or mindset, regardless of your age. Are there ways to maintain it, or is it nonsensical to pursue it? And is a youthful mindset now the same as a youthful mindset 30 years ago? Or does eternal youth represent timeless? And then what is timeless?

Looking back

On Wednesday 20 November 2024, our third TEDx took place at pop podium Nieuwe Nor. Many thanks to our speakers for their inspiring stories. All TEDxTalks have been recorded and will be published on the TED-platform in December. Keep an eye on this website or our socials for the last updates!
