TEDxNicosia 2016 – ‘Traces’

Ideas are power. They are worth manifesting and spreading. They can enrich our community, nourish our mind, feed the soul, stimulate the spirit. We believe in the power and beauty of ideas that can unfold like colourful yarns in a neighbourhood street or from the top of a slide in pursuit of a monumental landing. Because ideas inspire, they make people reflect, engage in a dialogue and they multiply.

These very ideas are the traces | ιχνη that TEDXNicosia has been creating over the past five years. They are our contribution to the local community, the traces which people can look back upon and also look ahead at. Simply put, traces left by footprints are the summation of a journey…

“What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven in the lives of others” – Pericles

“Every animal leaves traces of what it was; man alone leaves traces of what he created.” – Jacob Bronowski
