#QOTD
“The success of businesses, projects, or interventions must not come at the cost of a negative impact to communities. Inclusivity is a key tenet of social sustainability and should be embedded in the process, not treated as an afterthought.”

Tasnim Abdul Hadi, LCSI Programme Manager

This year’s edition of TEDxSingaporeManagementUniversity, UN:Charted brings together individuals who have forged their own paths against all odds in multitudes of fields, inspiring the collective community to look above and beyond. UN:Charted hence advocates for individuals to not be afraid of the unexplored and unmapped, serving as a reminder to all that there are great numbers of non-linear paths to be taken, if you just take a leap of faith.
