The Power of Why and the TED Global Idea Search Session

Took placeOctober 4, 2025
LocationAmman, ٰĀmmān (Al ٰĀşimah), Jordan
FormatStandard
Behind every decision, breakthrough, or change lies one simple but profound question: “Why?” It’s the question that drives us to look closer, think deeper, and understand better. It pushes us to challenge what we know, step into the unfamiliar, and uncover the unknown. “Why?” isn’t just curiosity, it’s a force that moves us forward, sparking ideas, inspiring action, and connecting people across borders and generations. This year, TEDxAmman took this spirit even further by hosting, for the first time ever in the MENA region, the TED Global Idea Search Session, a powerful collaboration between TED Global and TEDxAmman that brought together exceptional voices and groundbreaking ideas from across our region. Through these stories, talks, and shared experiences, we discovered how asking “Why?” doesn’t just shape our lives, it redefines what’s possible and builds the future we all imagine. 🌍
