Jess will be discussing digital activism and how activism, a practice that is often seen as divisive, can unify our community. Jess is a 16 year old climate and environmental activist and co-founder of Fridays for Future Exeter. She has been involved with activism for a few years now and has recently been exploring how we can harness the momentum from the digital activism movement that’s become so prominent since the pandemic and transform it into on-the-ground action. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
