TED Prize 2008 Neil Turok: My wish: Find the next Einstein in Africa (script)
Summary
Nowadays, the areas where we are living are quite developed. Almost all kids can receive a good education and people can study something after graduating also. Big changes are happening in the world, but Africa has left behind. In fact, all of the aid doesn't work for Africa is more independent. So to be able to be independent is the most important thing. There are just tons of bright kids in Africa but they are starved of opportunity. If they can learn more skills, especially mathematical and science skills in industry, government, and education, they can be a person who is able to solve their problems themselves and help Africa. The speaker set up an African Institute for Mathematical Sciences that's called AIMS which can give all African students the best opportunities. The best teachers are gathered from in the world and from a whole of Africa, students are recruited. They can use computers and receive to tutor anytime. Young African people mold a person who can help their own Africa. This is the best way to help Africa for them and us. There's no reason why it doesn't spread. The speaker hopes that this system really works and gives birth to the next Einstein.
The words in this story
mold / form, shape, make
starve / be hungry, go hungry
