My December 29th, 2023 TEDxNTUE talk — “Raising Resilient Children: Preparing Gen A for an Uncertain Future” — is now online.
INTRODUCTION
We stand at a unique crossroads in human history, raising a generation unlike any other. Generation Alpha — growing up amid rapid technological advances, global health crises, sociopolitical upheaval, and looming climate disaster — is arguably the most connected, disrupted, and uncertain generation ever. This era’s unprecedented challenges have fundamentally altered their childhood landscape, making resilience essential. Through the lens of his family’s experience during the COVID-19 pandemic, Kevin Geiger shares insights and strategies for nurturing resilience in our children. These prescriptions — though rooted in a personal journey — are universal, offering guidance and hope for people of all ages grappling with tomorrow’s uncertainties. Together, we’ll explore how to equip Gen A with the tools they need to thrive in an unpredictable world — ensuring they grow into adaptable, resilient adults ready for whatever the future holds.
