- Built environment: How can we re-engineer the stuff that surrounds us?
- Transport: How do we transform the ways we move?
- Food: How can we spark a worldwide shift to healthier food systems?
- Nature: How extensively can we re-green the earth?
- Finance: How do we finance the transition towards a sustainable future?
- Motivation: How do we motivate people to change their everyday behaviours?
The University of Luxembourg will be hosting 5 ONLINE EVENING SESSIONS (starting at 18:30 each day) with original talks and performances during the week of 12-16 October 2020.

Tickets
In these challenging times we want to give as many people as possible the opportunity to attend our event. Therefore, this year's TEDx edition is FREE of charge. However, if you can spare a dime, you are welcome to select the Pay-what-you-can Ticket and support our event with a donation of your choice. All donations will be used to offset some of the carbon emissions that were inevitably caused by our event.
What do I get ?
You will get exclusive access to original talks about climate change and learn about solutions we can, individually and collectively, deploy to create a cleaner and fairer world for everyone. You will also have the pleasure to enjoy performances by musical artists that we curated for this special occasion. Moreover, you will be able to (virtually) meet other people who care about climate change and wish to take action too and have the opportunity to chat with our speakers and performers.
As a token of appreciation each attendee will receive a digital goody to support local and sustainable businesses.
