CIW to join scientists and other luminaries, including former U.S. Surgeon General, on stage in California for TEDMED 2018!
This November, TEDMED, an independent branch of the world-famous TED Talks conference, is convening in California, bringing together over a dozen powerful speakers to share “ideas worth spreading.” We are thrilled to share the news that among those on stage will be the CIW’s own Gerardo Reyes Chavez and Greg Asbed who, in a rare TED Talk double-billing, will together share a the groundbreaking new paradigm of Worker-driven Social Responsibility with the TEDMED audience. While the mainstream TED series focuses on “technology, entertainment, and design” (TED), TEDMED focuses on the world of science and public policy:
"TEDMED bridges the gap between science and the public by finding and sharing stories that inform, inspire, engage and provoke action across a broad, passionate community both inside and outside of health and medicine. TEDMED values inclusiveness, multi-disciplinary collaboration and diversity in its mission to catalyze a healthier world.
Our annual event brings the world together to focus on what’s new and important in health and medicine. We forge partnerships with industry leaders, medical research institutions, think tanks, government agencies and foundations, to ensure that cutting-edge biomedical thinking, innovation in healthcare and large scale global public health opportunities are shared across disciplines and made accessible to the public at large.
Year-round, TEDMED engages a community of dedicated change-makers in dynamic conversations through social media, TEDMED Talks and a variety of programmatic efforts leveraging dynamic partnerships."
The upcoming TEDMED Conference will be attended by hundreds of audience members and a dozen fellow speakers, ranging from a public health criminologist to a former U.S. Surgeon General. The audience, of course, is not limited to those who attend the conference itself – TED Talks have been viewed over two billions times around the world...
