Teacher/Investigator
Born in Mozambique, where he lived until the seventeen years old, Mário Forjaz Secca lived eleven years in Britain. At the end of the period in England he quit his job, sold his apartment and spent eight months traveling around the world, then he went to Portugal, to live there.

The image in its scientific and artistic side become an integral part of his way to see the world. However, he thinks that before everything the human being, the scientists must be thinkers, because is in the power of ideas that we see the knowledge and prepare de future.

That is why he decided to devote himself to think and live the ideas of this world, that so many times restrain our thoughts.

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)
