The first TEDxYouth event was held by TEDxYouth@Tokyo in Japan. ===TED Fellows=== [[File:TEDGlobal2012.jpg|thumb|TEDGlobal 2012 at the [[Edinburgh International Conference Centre]]]] TED Fellows were introduced in 2007, during the first TEDAfrica conference in [[Arusha]], Tanzania, where 100 young people were selected from across the continent. Two years later, during TEDIndia, 99 fellows were recruited, mainly from South Asia. In 2009, the fellows program was initiated in its present form. For every TED or TEDGlobal conference, 20 fellows are selected; a total of 40 new fellows a year. Each year, 20 past fellows are chosen to participate in the two-year senior fellows program (in which they will attend four more conferences). 2019 marked the tenth anniversary of the TED Fellows program. Acceptance as a fellow is not based on academic [[credential]]s, but mainly on past and current actions, and plans for the future.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ted.com/pages/248|title=Application tips {{!}} Apply to be a TED Fellow {{!}} TED Fellows Program {{!}} Participate |website=TED|access-date=June 18, 2016}}</ref> Besides attending a conference free of charge, each fellow takes part in a special program with [[mentorship|mentoring]] by experts in the field of spreading ideas, and can give a short talk on the "TED Fellows" stage. Some of these talks are subsequently published on TED.com. Senior fellows have additional benefits and responsibilities.<ref>{{Cite magazine|url=https://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2011-07/18/tedglobal-fellows|title=Wired meets 2011's TED Fellows|last=Rowan|first=David|date=July 18, 2011|magazine=Wired|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110720175312/http://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2011-07/18/tedglobal-fellows|archive-date=July 20, 2011|access-date=June 18, 2016}}</ref> ===TED-Ed=== TED-Ed is a [[YouTube]] channel from Ted which creates short animated educational videos.
