Are you a millennial with an idea that could bring positive change to the world? You can apply to join TEDx Johannesburg’s Online Mentorship Programme.
TEDx Johannesburg, with the support of Global Citizen, is looking for 100 ideas by 100 millennials to celebrate 100 years since Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela stepped out into the world to shake it, and push the human race forward. This group, born after 1984, and based in any city in Africa, will form the cohort for TEDx Johannesburg’s 2019 activation: 100Ideas100Millenials – an online mentorship programme running from January to December 2019.
Could you be one of the 100? Here’s what you could get:
A guaranteed ticket to TEDx Johannesburg 2018: Decoding Greatness, taking place on 30 November 2018
–
A chance to win double tickets to the Global Citizen Festival: Mandela 100, taking place on 2 December at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg
–
Have your idea profiled at TEDx Johannesburg 2018: Decoding Greatness
–
Tap into TEDx Johannesburg’s network of impressive contacts and expertise
–
Participate in a 12-month TEDx Johannesburg, community-led mentorship programme
The selection of the final 100 will be based on how much the ideas respond to humanity’s most pressing challenges, as defined by the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals.
These ideas could create wealth, and much-needed jobs. Or they could simply open people’s minds to new thinking that changes paradigms, and shifts horizons. These ideas could manifest as products, services, campaigns, or powerful new initiatives that spark movements.
The deadline for application is October 30th.
