The Boy Who Harvested the Wind
William Kamkwamba – HOW I HARNESSED THE WIND
Inventor, Student and Author. A remarkable success story about the power of human ingenuity in the face of crippling odds, William´s talk will inspire anyone who doubts the power of one individual to change the world. Like most boys in the village, Kamkwamba grew up believing that magic ruled the world and hardship dominated life. When he turned 14, he had to drop out of school because his parents could no longer afford the $80-a-year tuition. While seeking distraction from boredom and starvation at the community library, he discovered something that dramatically changed the course of his future; the miracles of science.
