This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Empowering women is a key part for a nation to grow. Jenny argues that, with the roles that women play in the society, they should be given greater attention to by society. Development strategist Jenny Elmaco is the first Asian Marie Curie Fellow on Sustainable Peacebuilding of the European Commission. She spent the past decade living and working in Europe understanding and deconstructing governance and civil society. She professes Vienna is her hometown and Barcelona her backyard but maintains a close relationship with Dumaguete - her birthplace. 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)
