Velho? Velho é o seu Preconceito! | Ir. Daiene Fontenele | TEDxBlumenau

Ir. Daiene talks about people with hair dyed in silver. She comes to stage with the argument that Elder people are marginalized due to where they're staying. In opposite, she believes they are, in fact, talking books. When was the last time you stopped to listen to the stories of the elder? Join us on this beautiful talk to see what wonders they have inside them.

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, TED Talks 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. TheTED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulation)

She's the manager of a "Long Stay Home" for the elderly. Gratuated on Social Services, Ir. Daiene works since 2011 with elder people and believes that they have as much to share as any of us, all you have to do is listen.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
