🎤 TEDxPerth Salon is back – and we’re diving into the conversations that matter most.

This August, we're asking: Can We Talk? – The Art of Conversation

This is a powerful Winter Salon event that brings together five diverse speakers to explore one of the most urgent challenges of our time: how we talk to one another.

In a world shaped by polarisation, disconnection, and rapid change, this evening will delve into the shifting dynamics of conversation — how we speak, listen, disagree, influence, and connect.

Expect thought-provoking talks on:
➡️ Mental wellness and hard conversations�
➡️ Culture, truth, and trust
➡️ Indigenous knowledge, climate grief, disinformation, and digital influence

Together, our speakers will share courageous perspectives on what it means to be radically human, and why meaningful dialogue matters now more than ever.

📍 The Red Room, Leederville | 7 August 2025
