You’re a Global Citizen, You Just Don’t Know it Yet | Teo Nenes | TEDxYouth@SWA

Teo explores what being a global citizen means today from the perspective of a "Third Culture Kid" drawing on his experiences growing up in multiple parts of world as an international student and particularly his experience as a Brazilian in China as a young child. He highlights lessons learnt from his own journey, embracing International Mindedness as a mindset that is key to success in the 21st Century academic and professional realms, and points towards key aspects of educational systems that can support such development. Teo Vichinheski Nenes is a veteran world traveller who, at the age of 16, has lived in, learnt and experienced 5 different countries across three continents. A self-proclaimed global citizen, he is of Polish and Italian descent, was born in Brazil, moved to China at the age of 5, where he lived for 7 years, before moving to Malaysia, where he spent 2 years before living in Cairo for 2 years and now has finally found his home in Indonesia since July 2019, at least for the next 2 years... He has been immersed in many different cultures and is what we would call a true “third culture kid.” Teo enjoys political science, biology, studying world languages and philosophy. He loves “a good debate”, discussing global issues with his peers and teachers and plans to study medicine after graduating from SWA in 2021. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
