Welcome to the World Café Community Blog!
The World Café is a global community of people dedicated to awakening and engaging collective intelligence through conversations about questions that matter... Welcome to your blog! Your active involvement is warmly invited.
I was recently watching a TED Talks link regarding PANGEA day, May 10th, (www.pangeaday.org) all around the world (180 countries) for 4 hrs, people will gather to watch the same films, to see the world through someone elses eyes, tapping into the power of film to cross borders and create more understanding- it was Jenane Noujam's 2006 TED WIsh for winning the $100,000 prize and her effort toward world peace... she is the Director of Control Room. Check out the site, listen to her TED talk and I encourage all World Cafe facilitators to host an event and follow it with WorldCafe conversation. As I read through the site, I'm concerned the real leverage for this kind of event is in the conversation that follows, especially if that conversation is facilitated via the elegant, participatory structure of a Worldcafe, feels like a wonderful match up. I hope you agree.
