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
