Student, ability-activist and soon-to-be Mt Kilamanjaro climber, Chaeli, shares her moving personal story of how she finds "ability through self-belief" and continues to push limits of her body, of science and of human compassion.  

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)
