TED / Minderoo Foundation: Molly Wright: How Every Child Can Thrive By Five

M&C Saatchi Group AUNZ and Minderoo Foundation are delighted to showcase a history making TED-style talk by a 7-year-old girl, set to change the way parents and caregivers around the world view early-childhood brain development, as well as exploring how adults interact with the world’s youngest citizens. The talk, which was only recently released, has attracted over 12 million views (inc. 26,000 comments and an astonishing 323,000 shares) on TED’s Facebook, as well as an additional 5.7+ million times on their Instagram – all organic (one of the most viewed ever on these platforms). Directed by internationally acclaimed filmmaker Michael Gracey (director of The Greatest Showman), the talk features one of the youngest ever TED speakers. Molly Wright, a Grade 2 student from Queensland, Australia, was chosen to deliver the important message to parents and caregivers the world over. The concept was the brainchild of The Minderoo Foundation, one of Australasia’s largest philanthropic organisations, and delivered through Minderoo’s Thrive by Five initiative in collaboration with M&C Saatchi Group AUNZ and FINCH.
