What will tomorrow look like in Japan? Can we be certain walking towards times of unpredictability? Growing up in this country, how will things have to change? Japan’s culture and mentality are rather conservative. Although this is not necessarily a bad thing, it is a barrier to societal growth. By highlighting the Japanese mentality and the phenomenon of 迷惑 (being bothersome to others), Kanak will show how Japan can move towards progress as a society.
As an avid language learner who has had the chance to live in many different countries, she will also use her unique past to touch on how languages are the gateway to understanding cultures. Kanak is a young idealist who has grown up in a multicultural society, learned a lot of languages, changed many schools and lived in multiple different countries. She’s a table tennis player, guitarist and language enthusiast who’s into spell bees, MUNs and speak-up challenges. She also likes to take pictures, edit music, and learn about other people. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
