TedxAccra Speakers: Meet Lauren Grimanis

Why you should listen to my talk:

I believe the future, the “next chapter” is in all of our hands – it's collectively in the decisions we make as individuals and as communities. And we all need to take action in our future. I want to share with you my beliefs and what I've learned from bringing people together and working in Ghanaian villages – and how together we can push forward for a better world.
