Theme: The Big Picture

The wait is finally over… Get ready for the most anticipated event of the year, because for the first time in two years, the team at TEDx Monash University will be bringing you our live Flagship Event: “The Big Picture”.

The pandemic has catalysed such an abrupt shift in our society and now, it seems as if our world continues to change at an even more rapid pace. As such, as part of the TEDx community, we hope to explore the “Big Picture” and assess what it takes to adapt to this new world and instil hope in moving beyond the hardships we’ve collectively faced and move towards the new normal.

You will have a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness an array of captivating speakers and incredibly talented performers. You’ll also have the chance to meet and network with like-minded individuals and be truly engaged in the discussion of how we move forwards as a society. Certainly, not an event to be missed. We look forward to seeing you there!
