TEDxUWCRCN will take place at United World College Red Cross Nordic (UWC RCN), one of the fifteen UWC schools all over the world. UWC RCN is located in Flekke, Sogn og Fjordane on the west coast of Norway. Although a small community in size, Flekke is one of the most diverse cities in Norway. Not only is the United World College established in this village, but also Haugland, a Red Cross Rehabilitation Centre, which brings individuals from all over Norway and the rest of the world. TEDxUWCRCN is also planning to open its doors to the Fjaler municipality and a high school in a nearby town. Our school, the United World College Red Cross Nordic is a dynamic community with current students representing close to 100 nationalities. Each of these students have prevailed through a rigorous application process and are all exceptionally motivated and driven to improving and advancing the world through politics, art, science, economics, technology and more. The event will take place in the auditorium of United World College Red Cross Nordic. With a spacious stage and an arsenal of technological equipments, the auditorium has the ability to optimize the success of the event. The venue has the capacity of 240 people, and is well decorated with flags from over 100 different countries to capture the diversity of the location. Our chosen theme, “One step forward”, enables a wide array of topics to be brought up by our speakers. This theme was selected in order to cater for the broad and diverse interests of our students, guaranteeing that speakers from a variety of fields will be able to share their expertise with an abundance of avid and intrigued listeners.
