This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Inspired by the activism of previous generations, Jonas Dreger has been searching for the purpose of his own generation. He founded an initiative to identify “the project ” that the current generation will be remembered for. He invites you to to join him in his search and shares his ideas on what this “project” could be. 


Jonas Dreger is a policy advisor on environmental policy. He gained his MA from the College of Europe, Belgium, and worked as a doctoral researcher at the BGSS at the Humboldt University of Berlin, Germany, and the European University Institute in Florence, Italy. 

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)
