William Kamkwamba: How I harnessed the wind is the most INSPIRING talk I translated because I wanted my son to learn about Williams’s story of following his dreams and never giving up. I wanted him to have William as great example for his whole life. When I told him this story he wanted to read it himself to check . So I decided to translate the talk. He read it in Armenia. Later on we have shown the talk in his class at his school. After that kids call me all the time to show new talks. Last time I was a t school, I have shown kids how to choose the Armenian language from the menu.
I also started translating TED talks and also engaging others in this cause I couldn’t stop thinking what would happen to me I would have seen TED talks when I was a kid. I want TED talks to be accusable to all kids in my country and in the world ….

Again, thank you and happy anniversary!!
