TEDxPraça Gil Eanes Salon - Women: The Untold Stories

TEDxPraça Gil Eanes Salon - Women: The Untold Stories

One Identity. Infinite Facets. Society often tries to fit women into single chapters: the professional, the caregiver, the dreamer. At our upcoming TEDxPraça Gil Eanes Salon, we are tearing out the labels and exploring the whole book.

Join us for "Women: The Untold Stories," a cinematic and live experience dedicated to the multidimensional strength of women. We are moving beyond the surface to celebrate modern womanhood, the quiet power of the mother, the grit of the entrepreneur, the wisdom of the elder, and the fire of the young activist.

While our focus is on the multidimensional strength of women, this is an inclusive space and this event is open to everyone - all are warmly welcomed and encouraged to join the conversation.

What are TEDxPraça Gil Eanes Salon Events?

TEDxPraça Gil Eanes is a platform for discovery located in the heart of Lagos, dedicated to uncovering "ideas worth spreading" within our local and global community. While our flagship annual conference serves as our grand stage for diverse TEDx Talks, we believe that curiosity and idea sharing shouldn't be limited to once a year.

To bridge the gap between our major events, we host TEDxPraça Gil Eanes Salons. These are intimate, high-energy gatherings designed to foster deep dialogue and lasting connections. While the annual conference provides the spark, the Salon is where the fire is tended.

As an official TEDx licensee, our team is committed to creating spaces where the community can engage with complex topics in a more personal setting. Whether on the big stage or in a cosy Salon circle, we believe that conversation is the catalyst for change, and that our best ideas grow when they are shared, questioned, and celebrated together.
