TEDxBwaila 2025
: Tingathe (We Can)
Malawi has faced numerous challenges in recent years, from the COVID-19 pandemic and cholera outbreaks to natural disasters and economic hardships. However, through these adversities, Malawians have showcased remarkable resilience, innovation, and determination to adapt, rebuild, and thrive.
TEDxBwaila returns in 2025 under the inspiring theme "Tingathe" (We Can)—a celebration of the indomitable spirit of Malawians who refuse to be defined by obstacles but rather by their ability to overcome them. This year’s event will serve as a platform for thought leaders, change-makers, and visionaries who are driving progress in diverse fields, from technology and education to social impact and entrepreneurship.
TEDxBwaila 2025 is designed as an immersive journey through three thematic sections: Remembrance & Reflection, The Hope & Resilience Experience, and Live Mural Painting. The event begins with a solemn tribute to lives lost due to crises in Malawi, featuring a Grief Book, Tombstone Memorial, and immersive VR experiences to honor past struggles. It then transitions into a celebration of resilience and innovation, showcasing success stories, a Malawi Achievement Map, and a Storytelling Booth to highlight progress. Finally, attendees will participate in a live mural painting led by a Malawian artist, symbolizing unity and creativity. The event embodies the theme "Tingathe", affirming Malawi’s strength in overcoming challenges and shaping its future together.
