Making a change only needs passion | Tereza Jureckova | TEDxDonauinsel

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Tereza told the story of her project Pragulic. Pragulic offers city tours guided by homeless, even 24-hour homeless-experiences, and is a very successful start-up today in Prague. Tereza: „I believe that everyone can make a change if they have a passion and support.“
She didn’t even know the meaning of „NGO“ when she started studying Management for NGOs in Ostrava, Czech Republic. Luckily she became interested soon and started volunteering, travelling and working hard for her bachelor’s degree. When Tereza moved to Prague for a master’s program two years ago, she jumped into a unknown field again. Knowing nothing about social entrepreneurship, she founded „Pragulic“ with two schoolmates.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, 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 TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
