Rompiendo la barrera del Silencio | Maria Batlle | TEDxSantoDomingo

Aprender debería ser como tu canción favorita. La música fue mi primer lenguaje. Maria Batlle is a self-taught film maker, sculptor, painter, music producer, creative director and teaching artist; Maria brings in a strong mix of arts and business from her background as a visual artist and as the Creative Director for MasterCard in the Caribbean. Her latest initiative “Whale MuseSeek” a project that opened up the world of live whale music to Deaf children was described as a “brilliant initiative for Deaf children” by Forbes magazine and as a “revolution in education” by the Dominican Minister of Culture. The two most widely read newspaper in Spanish language in the United States El Diario de NY and La Opinión de Los Angeles described her as “a hurricane called Maria is revolutionizing education for the Deaf in the DR and soon the world”. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
