Communicating valuable ideas and making known good practices related to sustainability means spreading a message of hope and innovation that is what characterizes the TED spirit.

Building a sustainable event and working on these increasingly important aspects at a global level, is one of the challenges we set ourselves in developing a structured path that would motivate and involve the entire community, giving value to the sustainable development objectives of the 2030 Agenda, drawn up by the United Nations Organization.
