Theme: Unmasking the Reality

At TEDxNIT Goa, our theme, "Unmasking," seeks to uncover the hidden layers that shape our lives and the world around us. From the unseen struggles behind success, decoding the secrets to financial stability, motivation and personal vision, and to the profound influence of cinema and global geopolitics on India, Unmasking shines a light on the truths, challenges, and overlooked realities that often lie beneath the surface.
We explore the gap between perception and reality—revealing cinema's deeper societal impact, the ripple effects of global decisions on local lives, and the unseen journeys of motivation and resilience that drive personal achievements.
"Unmasking" also encourages introspection, delving into the profound impact of personal vision in defining our identity, conquering challenges, and pursuing meaningful aspirations. Through these diverse talks, we aim to inspire deep reflection, sparking conversations that encourage our audience to peel back the layers of complexity and discover new insights.
"Unmasking" is a journey of revelation—a call to question, explore, and understand the forces that influence our world and ourselves. Join us at TEDxNIT Goa, as we unravel these the complexities behind these ideas and uncover new perspectives, ignite thought-provoking discussions, and inspire transformative change.
