Despite what most people have been lead to believe by sensationalist media, natural disasters can have a silver lining. Time after time, remarkable communities rise up after a natural disaster, revealing the core of our humanity and giving a glimpse of how we might respond in the face of even bigger challenges. Tom Llewellyn is a community organizer, consultant, and speaker who promotes people-powered solutions for the common good.
He’s the strategic partnerships director for Shareable.net, executive producer and host of the documentary and podcast series “The Response,” and the co-editor/author of 3 books including “Sharing Cities: Activating the Urban Commons” and “The Response: Building Collective Resilience in the Wake of Disasters”. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
