About this event

Brighton is renown as a liberal city founded on equality, but does that extend to citizens of varying generations? What can we learn from the young and old, how do we prepare for our future generations and communicate cross-generationally? Where does The Generation Gap lie and does it even exist?
TEDxBrighton 2012 will raise questions, provoke discussion and provide a platform for great ideas.
