BushDoctor, Entrepreneur, Artist born in Cape Town, South Africa. Carlo has travelled extensively through Southern Africa, and it was on his journey that he discovered his passion of healing. The connection to the herb lore that he found so fascinating was the product of oral knowledge passed down from the Khoi/San people (Bushmen) who are one of the oldest cultures on the planet. With 20 years of experience, Carlo has an established herbal medicine practise in Cape Town, and has worked for Stellenbosch University as a Research Assistant and Lecturer on Indigenous Medicinal Plants used in South Africa. An advocate and custodian for indigenous medicinal plants and remedies, Carlo's idea worth spreading is to establish propagation hubs for indigenous plants, thereby ensuring their survival; the preservation of indigenous knowledge of their uses; and to create jobs in the process.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
