Nishi Felton is a student at Waterford Kamhlaba, who was born and grew up in Southern Africa. Interested in societal norms, she has developed this TEDx talk out of personal experiences and observations. Her interests include conservation and environmentalism, as well as issues of social injustice. Growing up in a Southern African context has helped her foster these, and has also lead her to question issues of identity and diversity, those being the major themes of her and Aliki’s talk.
Aliki is a second year at Waterford Kamhlaba UWCSA. She is half Greek and half German and grew up in the Greek city of Thessaloniki. Her interests lie in cooking, societal and environmental concepts and changes. She hopes to broaden her knowledge and understanding of multiculturalism in a global society.
In their talk, Nishi and Aliki discuss what it means to be a global citizen, discussing the importance of self-identification and offering their views on the concept of third-culture kids.
