From zero to 100 countries in just 3 years, from an idea to live public speaking events across the globe.
The idea of World Speech Day came to Simon Gibson (left) at the Athens Democracy Forum in 2015.
An idea that transformed into an intention. This came about as a result of Gibson’s work in establishing a free database for contemporary and historic speeches. And the realization that speeches can make a difference in the world – indeed, they play a profound role in bringing communities together and shaping change.
So, World Speech Day became a day to celebrate speeches and speech making all around the world and reaching out to #unexpectedvoices everywhere.
And now, World Speech Day is coming to Kuala Lumpur!
