Nationalism or Global Identity? | Surabhi Goswami-Christiansen | TEDxCopenhagen

At a time when we live in a global world, highly dependent on each other, why then do we think national? Will increasing nationalism equip us to solve global problems that threaten our future? This talk examines why rethinking our identity and recognizing our global identity is critical to affect our politics and policies for a better tomorrow. For over 10 years, Surabhi has communicated on global humanitarian issues for international bodies such as the European Parliament and United Nations agencies. As a migrant, she holds a personal and academic interest in issues of identity, community and belonging, and seeks to understand them with an intersectional approach.

She holds an MA in Media, Communication and Cultural Studies from Roskilde University, Denmark and UCL Institute of Education, UK, and is the recipient of the Erasmus Mundus scholarship from the European Union. She is the author of Networked Diasporas: Constructing Identity and Community on Social Networking Sites (2011). 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
