William Kamkwamba: How I harnessed the wind
At age 14, in poverty and famine, a Malawian boy built a windmill to power his
family's home. Now at 22, William Kamkwamba, who speaks at TED, here, for the
second time, shares in his own words the moving tale of invention that changed his
life.
Ernesto Sirolli: Want to help someone? Shut up and listen!
When most well-intentioned aid workers hear of a problem they think they can fix,
they go to work. This, Ernesto Sirolli suggests, is naïve. In this funny and
impassioned talk, he proposes that the first step is to listen to the people you're
trying to help, and tap into their own entrepreneurial spirit. His advice on what works
will help any entrepreneur.
