📢📢📢We're excited to present our speakers for this year's TEDxAntofagastaInternationalSchool. 👏👏👏
Josefina is a former student at Antofagasta International School. She has cultivated a few strong friendships with some of the teachers despite the hard times she had. Her teachers and friends helped her apply to study at Durham University, UK, even though it didn’t seem possible for someone like her. She is autistic, but it wasn’t something either she or other people realised until she was studying at the university, and since then she has been able to contextualise some of the thoughts, experiences and feelings she had while growing up. She has given several talks before including webinars and presentations on autism and pandemic mental health, autism and eating disorders, and autism and positive identity, and she has delivered training to professionals interested in autism. #TED #TEDx #tedxais #embracingthefuture #autism #ideasworthspreading
