Clubes TED-Ed Argentina

What Clubes TED-Ed Argentina does

Clubes TED-Ed Argentina is a non-profit educational program operated by Fundación Ideas que Transforman, an Argentine foundation established around 2010 and headquartered in Buenos Aires (Malabia 2430). The program operates under license from TED and is organizationally connected to TEDxRíodelaPlata. It serves secondary school students aged 12-18 across all 24 Argentine provinces, delivered through participating public and private educational institutions. The core methodology engages facilitator teachers who guide students through a structured series of sessions to develop ideas from their own interests and construct TED-style talks, which are then presented at events within their educational communities.

The program is supported by a web-based technology infrastructure: a dedicated registration platform (inscripciones.clubesteded.org) implementing a three-step enrollment process for institutions, facilitators, and group licenses, and a learning management system (plataforma.clubesteded.org) powered by Educabot technology. Content outputs include an archive of 50+ student talks covering diverse topics, a Spotify-distributed podcast featuring student talks with commentary from recognized figures, and themed event initiatives co-organized with UNICEF Argentina (Activá tus Ideas, Reimaginá tu futuro, Proyectá tu presente). A monthly newsletter (Charla del Mes) distributes curated talks to subscribers.

The business model is donation-and-sponsor funded with free access for participating institutions. Revenue derives from corporate sponsorships—UNICEF Argentina as Platinum sponsor, and Pomeranec, Marval, Huerta, and Educabot as Silver sponsors—supplemented by individual donations through the website. With a core team of approximately 9 people, the organization operates a community-led, event-driven go-to-market motion relying on facilitator teachers as the primary implementation channel across Argentine secondary schools on an annual cycle.
