Theme: Unlearning

"Perfecting oneself is as much unlearning as it is learning."

Quotes Edsger W. Dijkstra, the renowned mathematician, and scientist who presented Dijkstra's algorithm.

The art of learning has been synonymous with progress since times immemorial. However, the real progress of an individual is as much about learning as it is about unlearning the facts and practices that no longer serve us.

Unlocking the magic of unlearning is bound to bring us closer to ourselves on a spiritual level. It is not only essential but also revolutionary, to break the boundaries of comprehension as we dive deeper into the sea of knowledge to search for ways to transform and adopt change. We at TEDxIGDTU bring you this revolution to transform the world around you, via an online event on 2nd and 3rd April 2022.

It takes great courage to unlearn what you have always known, so join us as we free our spirits with TEDxIGDTU'2022 to inaugurate the advent of a revolution as we promise you a once-in-a-lifetime unforgettable adventure to explore the unknown.

Come,
Let's Learn To Unlearn!
