TED Circles is a new TED initiative where community members come together to watch a TED Talk video and then discuss and debate the ideas from the talk. The goal of TEDxLancaster's TED Circles is to have a dialogue from diverse points of view, so that attendees can learn about different perspectives, philosophies, and perceptions in a safe, open, welcoming, and informal environment. The goal is to promote inclusion, tolerance, understanding, and empathy and create an informative, thought-provoking, and educational culture. The discussions will be moderated.
