Program Reviews

The Digital Experiment (TED). It was a really amazing experience as a place to present your thoughts and opinions to others while at the same time knowing what others are thinking and learning from them. You will really learn a lot. It is also a place to develop your skills, whether in communication or in leadership. For me it was really an experience that I learned a lot from. I developed my skills in communication and in leadership. I learned things I had never thought of. It was the first program I participated in, but it is great when you express your opinions in English and with other people around the world. The program is a place for everyone to meet to present their ideas together and collaborate to find solutions to their different problems, it was great when you get to know others and create new friendships to learn about what is happening in different countries, what are the most important problems they face and what are their goals. In fact, you will even get to know a lot about your country. So I really encourage everyone to join TED.

TED was an experience!, in it I realized more about peers living and having completely different experiences, that made me realize that I don't need to judge, not untill I experience what they experienced, but experiences are always not the same, this I learned from a module in the program, and one thing I also learned, is that when expecting relationships with people I need to seek them by myself and without a third mart help (staff for example), this at my current situation was very helpful !.

I Really enjoyed spending my time being part of the TED program. It was an amazing experience where I learned new things, and I got the right support from it in order to implement a project and start making a difference in my community.
Due to the pandemic I didn't have the opportunity to descover the world, meet new people and learn more about other cultures, but thanks to the program I had all these at once. Without moving from my chair I visited so many communities and learned so much about them! I met incredible people and had nice discussions with the participant. I am so grateful to be given such an opportunity!

It was an extremely engaging and fun program. I really enjoyed our activities and zoom calls with our family subgroups or even country wide zoom chats. The focus is to identify a key issue in your community and make a public service project geared towards fixing it. I enjoyed the program because of the many perspectives it brought and how everyone was open to communication about their culture and values. There were many genuine discussions and I feel like I came out of this as a better person. 10/10, would recommend for anyone looking to experience something like this.

In the experiment digital program you will have the chance to discover the world when you connect with your peers from different countries ; you will also discover yourself and what could you do to change the world the thing that make my experience unique is that I learned new things , I made new friends without leaving my room . I made new family every week-end we have a dialogue to talk about a specific topic we share our opinions everyone will respect your ideas and opinions .I couldn't express My experience with the experiment digital program in few sentences

I am so lucky to participate in this program and from the greatest opportunities I have had , I learned how think deeply about issues and matters and also learned how to solve problems and I enjoyed engaging discussions with my neighbourhood members and our dialogues with my family.thank you so much The Experiment Digital and I am so sad because it ended I will never forget it. I learned about leadership and improved my leadership skill and I became able to start my project soon . Thank you so much again and best regards.

My experience with the program was really good and really fun. It was a very eye opening program in which you learn a lot of new stuff and meet a lot of amazing and wonderful people. This program along with many things teaches you about the modern day problems in each community, it inspires and motivates you to take action and helps you plan whats on your mind and teaches you how to make them smart goals. This program teaches shows many youths what their dreams and passions are and helps them become reality.

My experience with TED taught me a ton about leadership, communication, and service project building. I plan to use these skills in my future projects, and the one I designed during the program. The country chats helped me listen to differing viewpoints about current issues, and I made friends in my neighborhood and family. I also had really good conversations with my peers and facilitator. I would recommend this for any youth interested in Middle Eastern cultures, service projects, leadership skills, and current issues.

The experiment digital was really amazing experience, that I’ve knew about different countries and cultures and communities from it , and I made new friendships from different countries, it’s also helped me to be more social and fluent in english, and learned me to start my project and help my community and improve it , and my favorite part at the program was the family dialogues , so you will know how to discover the issues in your community and the root causes for and effects on the community, and starting to find the solutions step by step !

Through The Experiment Digital, I have made peers from Algeria, Yemen, Iraq, Kurdistan, and other parts of the United States of America. In the 2020 cohort, we bonded through games, group calls, and just weekly tasks. Over the course of 8 weeks, I’ve learned so much about leadership and the values of community. Plus, I plan to take all the skills I’ve gained them and apply them to projects I’m already a part of and those that I choose to create. And on top of all this, it’s fully funded aka free!
