Choose War or Choose Peace | Mateo Franco Harrington | TEDxYouth@AISR

Mateo Franco is from England and Colombia but has lived in Colombia for 1 year, Dubai for 2, and Saudi for 8. His brother is in Grade 1. Mateo loves the subject “Writers: and his favourite “Special” is P.E. In home at Al Bustan Village, Mateo does different sports, including Soccer, Swimming, and Tennis. In some parts of his free time reads. His favourite book is Flying The Dragon and Percy Jackson. Reading has caused Mateo to love it and now he loves reading War books and he love listening to his grandad who used to be in the army and is now retired. Reading made him enter TEDx so he can teach everyone about War and how he learnt it from reading and that there's a choice: Peace or War.
In his talk, Mateo shares his love of reading and how reading has catapulted his fascination with war and peace. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
