Designer Michael McDaniel reshapes disaster relief around the humans most personally affected by tragedy. Obsessed with finding housing solutions that offer more dignity and providing smarter preparation, his Exo Reaction Housing Solution has taken on the global challenge of preventing natural disasters from becoming humanitarian disasters, too.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. 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.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
