2018 Theme: "Connect the World"
昨今の国際情勢において、「社会の断絶」が危惧されています。こうした時代だからこそ、私たちFulbrighterはFulbright設立の精神「異なる文化間の相互理解」が求められる時ではないかと考え、"Connect the World" をテーマとして、TEDxイベントを開催することといたしました。
Given the recent global trend of “social disconnect,” we believe that the Fulbright mission to enhance mutual understanding between different cultures is an idea worth spreading. Thus, we are hosting a TEDxFulbright event themed “Connect the World.”

About Fulbright
フルブライト交流事業はアメリカと世界各国の人々の間に相互理解を促進するために設立された教育交流プログラムです。「世界平和を達成するためには人と人との交流が最も有効である」という確固たる信念のもと、故 J. ウィリアム・フルブライト米国上院議員が提唱し、1946年に発足しました。日本におけるフルブライト交流事業は、日米両国政府の拠出金に加えて民間寄付を受けています。同交流事業は、あらゆる職業分野のリーダーを育成するという大切な役割を果たし、世界で最も名誉のある奨学金の一つという評価を得ています。
The Fulbright Program is an international educational exchange program designed to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people from countries around the world. With the conviction that people exchanges are the most effective means to promote world peace, the late Senator J. William Fulbright presented a bill and established the Fulbright Program in 1946. The Fulbright Program in Japan is funded by the U.S. and Japanese governments and by private-sector contributions. The Fulbright Program plays an important role in fostering the development of leaders in various fields, and it has developed into one of the most prestigious educational exchange programs in the world.

About TEDx
TEDxとは、TEDの”Ideas Worth Spreading”の精神のもと、世界130ヵ国以上で発足しているコミュニティです。『x』には、独立しているという意味が込められ、TEDの正式なライセンスを取得しながらも、人選や運営などにTEDは関与せず、独自に行います。TEDxごとの特色をふまえつつも、TEDと同様に様々な分野から出演者を招き、交流を深めるイベントとなっています。世界各地で開かれたTEDxはこれまで1万以上に上り、TEDxWoman、TEDxUniversityなど各テーマに応じたイベントも開催されています。
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that brings people together to share a TED-like experience in over 130 countries. At a TEDx event, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.
