He always had the dream of creating a charitable foundation to give hands to the misfortunate people around the UAE and the World. Khalifa believes that being a philanthropist is all about giving back what the country and its people gave him earlier, no matter how much time or money you would give, it will still count because every little helps. He works with a strong passion for charitable works amongst the destitute of UAE, as the leaders of UAE taught every Emirati. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx - local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDxevent, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x=independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDxprogram, but individual TEDxevents are self-organized. TEDx is part of a revolution in global education made possible by local organizers wanting to engage their communities. Every week, in multiple cities, people are coming together to pursue ideas worth spreading. --------------------------- @TEDxYouthJum www.tedxyouthjum.com
