Raising Your Hands High | Zuriel Oduwole | TEDxBerkeley

Zuriel Oduwole encourages us to step up and take action in world affairs. Zuriel Oduwole, often described as the world’s youngest filmmaker, is best known for her international development work and advocacy for girls’ education in Africa. At the age of 10, she was profiled in Forbes Magazine and was listed among 33 women who had changed the world by ELLE Magazine. In 2017, she was honored by the US Secretary of State for advocating against child marriages and for girls’ education. Oduwole has met with over 30 world leaders to address Global Social Development and Education Challenges. She has also spoken in 19 countries about the power of education and addressed COP23 delegates in Bonn, demonstrating the confluence between climate change and education. When she is not advocating for girls’ education, she teaches a filmmaking class for unemployed young women, a program she has now delivered in Ghana, Ethiopia, Mexico, Côte D'Ivoire, and Namibia. Zuriel always brings a simple but insightful youthful voice to major development causes, and she is an inspiration to millions of girls, women and families, around the world. 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
