Tech Wizard Launches New Sudan in TED World

A 36-year-old computer engineer established TEDx Khartoum – a vibrant international platform of conferences and lively debates about a new Sudan three years ago. Anwar Dafa-Alla introduced Sudan, its people and new ideas to the world with the international YouTube success of his own version of Technology, Entertainment and Design – a global video conferencing phenomenon called TEDx.

Dr Dafa-Alla

Dafa-Alla and his friends are now telling the story of Sudan – and publicizing ideas that he says are worth spreading – by sharing the thinking of Sudanese people about the complex nature of their nation and the power of positive thinking in a country struggling with economic and political transformation.

Starting in Seoul, Korea.

It all began when Dafa-Alla was studying for a doctorate in data mining in Cheongju, Korea. In his spare time he performed some online translations into Arabic of the work of Oxford mathematician Peter Donnelly and hundreds of others.

His Korean friends were impressed by his translations and in 2009 they invited him to Seoul to talk about his work on one of their TEDx programs.

“I was so moved and touched by the experience,” says Dafa-Alla. It also inspired him to create TEDx Khartoum.
