My Story

Danyal's World

About Me

Greetings! I’m Danyal Diallo – a TEDx speaker, actor, and comedian based in the vibrant city of Melbourne. Here’s a little peek into my world and what drives me:

A Journey of Resilience and Inspiration

Born in Sudan and now calling Australia home, my life has been a journey of resilience and adaptation. From overcoming a hip injury sustained at a young age to navigating the challenges of living in a new country, I’ve learned that adversity can be a powerful catalyst for growth and transformation.

Standing for Social Reform and Youth Excellence

I’m passionate about social reform and youth excellence, and I strive to embody these values in everything I do. Whether it’s through my inspiring TEDx talks or my work with local councils and social enterprises, I’m dedicated to empowering young people and creating positive change in my community.

Using Pain as Fuel for Success

Every step I take reminds me of the pain I’ve endured, but I choose to use that pain as fuel for my ambitions. I believe that success is a choice, and I’m committed to seizing every opportunity to carve out a life that reflects my values and aspirations.

Leading by Example

As a youth leader, I’m still pursuing my education while actively engaging in initiatives that make a difference. From assisting organizations like Destiny Rescue Australia in combating sex trafficking to advocating for cultural awareness and inclusivity, I strive to lead by example and inspire others to join me on the journey towards a better world.

Join Me on this Exciting Adventure

Whether you’re here to explore my thought-provoking presentations, catch a glimpse of my acting endeavors, or simply share a laugh at one of my comedy shows, I invite you to join me on this exciting adventure. Together, let’s embrace change, challenge stereotypes, and make a positive impact in the world.

We engaged Danyal in December of 2020 to speak at a Youth Focused workshop, aimed at empowering grassroots community members to enhance sustainable social and economic participation. Danyal’s presentation was engaging, humorous, relevant, and real-to-life. His session called up friendly conversations that engaged the whole-being. It was like discussing critical issues with a friend. He was effective, and I believe he will continue to have influence. Danyal’s energy is phenomenal, his sessions are thought-provoking, and he will keep you at the edge of your seat with his stoic philosophical views which are beyond his years. I would strongly recommend Danyal for your event.”
