- Homa migrated from Afghanistan to the Netherlands. She committed to building a new life for herself and is now excelling as a third-year law student. By drawing on personal experience, Homa will challenge us to rethink freedom. After all, we all find freedom important, but what exactly does it entail? For Homa, freedom means having the capabilities and opportunities to satisfy our own goals and overcome any obstacles that may stand in our way. Homa Golestani was born in Afghanistan but she spent the most of her childhood in Iran. In 2016 she and her 5 year old son came to the Netherlands as refugees. She is currently in the final year of her law bachelor degree at the Free University of Amsterdam. She speaks Farsi/Dari, English and Dutch. Homa enjoys reading, playing the guitar and spending time with her son. She values living in the present moment and loves experiencing new adventures. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
There's no need to ever doubt yourself or your strength again, Homa. And once you start trusting yourself again, opening up to others also becomes possible.
You are a torch of freedom and beauty and openness
