The power of third spaces | Martina Lastikova | TEDxCranfield University

When was the last time you felt truly connected? In this talk, Martina explores how third spaces like cafés and libraries can nurture genuine human connection. Through her experiences of building community in new cities, she reveals how these spaces help us move from simply being seen to being truly known. In an increasingly disconnected world, third spaces remind us that belonging is something we create together. Martina is a storyteller and community builder. With a Master’s in Peace and Development Work, she has worked across the NGO sector, creating spaces where people can collaborate, learn, and grow. With experience spanning UN agencies and grassroots initiatives, she specializes in building connections, amplifying impact, and curating spaces for collaboration. Passionate about social change, she uses storytelling, facilitation, and creativity to foster dialogue and build communities that inspire action and belonging. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
