Quote: TEDx Khartoum– Who We Are ? Posted on Thursday, April 28 @ 11:00:52 UTC by admin By Bhaskar Chakravorti Email: [email protected] Khartoum - They are a team of young enterprising professionals. Software Developers; Electrical Engineers; HR Managers; Architects; Arabic Translators in Embassies; Digital Designers; Telecom Engineers; Teachers; Dentists and Sales specialists. Few of them are students. The common thread which has brought them together is their passion for translating TED talks from English to Arabic as volunteers. They have devoted their time, energy and expertise to take TED talks beyond the English speaking world and spread the worthwhile ideas and inspiring talks to the younger generation and speakers of their own language in Sudan. They passionately believe in the power of ideas to change attitudes. Ideas worth spreading are not only restricted to Technology Entertainment Design (TED) but also encompass Business, Science and Global Issues. The annual TED conferences, in Long Beach/Palm Springs and Edinburgh, bring together the world's most fascinating thinkers and doers, who are challenged to give the talk of their lives (in 18 minutes or less). In this team of volunteer translators from Sudan, Dr. Anwar Fatihelrahman Ahmed Dafa-Alla is credited with the highest number of translations made in Arabic. He has translated 571 TED Talks. Dr. Anwar has recently been conferred upon by Chungbuk National University in South Korea with a PhD in Computer Science. His association with TED has inspired him to organize TEDx in Khartoum. This is an independently organized TED talk event where one will get to listen to Balgees Badri, Dr.Rashid Diab, Khalid Mansour, Eltayeb Farah, Ahmed Motasim, Abdel-Rahman El-Asha, Ghadda Gadoda, Nasr Mohammed, AbdelKareem Badri, Elfateh Hussain, Mustafa Khogali, Hisham Elzubeir, Isam Siddig and Fadwa Sa'ad. These are speakers selected from different walks of life in Sudan who will share with you their innovative and inspiring ideas. The venue is Spark City, Burri, and Khartoum on 30th April 2011 from 9 AM to 4 PM. Captions for Photos: 1. TEDx Team Khartoum 2. Dr. Anwar Dafa Alla

Where would you get to listen to live presentations on all above fourteen topics from different speakers under one roof on the same day and venue? That was the first time in Sudan and the event was called TEDx Khartoum. TED.com is a global community and thanks to volunteer translators like Anwar Dafa Alla who has made it local with TEDx an independently held TED event in Khartoum. You have an idea worth sharing, TED.com is the forum. Innovative ideas worth sharing not only about Technology, Entertainment or Design (TED) but also about Business, Science, Arts, Culture and Global Issues. Anwar Dafa Alla was passionate about translating. He said “Translating is about sharing, about caring. Sharing is humane and beautiful”. He took up translating and became the highest translator of TED talks in Arabic. He proved the world that he was not lazy. He also kept children in mind while translating to reveal the opportunity and possibility for the next generation. In the process he earned the title of the most prolific Arabic volunteer translator of TED Talks. He has translated more than 570 TED Talks and given subtitles in Arabic. He was invited by TED California where he got connected with different people from the world who were passionate about sharing ideas. He then dreamt of putting Sudan in the global map of TED. His dream was fulfilled on 30th April at Spark City, Burri where TEDx was held. The event brought both old wise people together with young talented citizens of Sudan. The speakers were Khalid Mansoor, Gadoda Kadooda, Elfatih Hussain, Nasr Mohammed, Abdelkareem ElBadri, Mustafa Khogali, El Tayeb Ali Farah, Dr.Rashid Diab, Dr.Abdelrahman El Asha, Fadwa Sa’ad, Dr.Isam Siddig and Ahmed Moutasim. The event was very well organized and had high tech multimedia presentations with live translations for foreigners and live stream webcast for those who could not attend. There were more than one thousand people who attended the event. The most noteworthy point in the event is that it was organized by volunteers who got together via Facebook under the clarion call of Anwar Dafa Alla. No wonder Anwar’s favourite quote is “Whatever you are doing, failure is an option, fear is not” by James Cameron TED Talk 2010.
