Street Culture in Zambia | Elijah Zgambo & Street Culture | TEDxLusaka

Elijah Zgambo tells the story of how a simple idea for a skateboarding and dance competition gave birth to a cultural movement that has redefined the potential of Zambian youth. Following an energetic performance from Street Culture crew, Elijah tells how his journey as a skater gave him a sense of purpose that he thinks he and his team can share to other young people by helping develop their talents. Street Culture Events and Arts is an organization co-founded by Elijah Zgambo and Kapembwa Siame. The two founders are pioneers of skateboarding, urban culture and extreme sports in Zambia, and established the organization because of the lack of recreational activities and programmes for young people in urban Zambia. Street Culture offers young people a platform for self-expression in the arts, dance and skateboarding and allows the youth to influence the performance, entertainment and arts space in Zambia. Performers from the group regularly collaborate with many organisations and corporations to host events, reach out to young people or provide well-needed entertainment. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
