Theme: "To Be Determined"

The main theme of this year’s TEDxSHSID is “To Be Determined". This does not mean that we haven’t come up with a theme yet, but rather, it means that this lack of certainty is our theme. With this topic, we are aiming to capture the uncertainty and potential present in the lives and initiatives of today’s youth. This topic is deeply relevant to us and our generation, and we strongly believe that hosting it in our international high school will further boost this relevance. This year's event takes place in SHSID's Blackbox Theater on June 22nd! See you then as we witness the power of a story.
