The World Café
Stockholm wants to contribute by providing an opportunity for open
discussions between all participants. The key is sharing of knowledge
and experiences.
The World Café was a new, exciting experience for all of us,
supporting the building of a new community.
A World Café
is built like a real café, with round tables, small flowers,
tablecloths, it's all built around the idea of a "safe
container" - a surrounding that makes everybody feel free to share
their point of view, and that allows everybody to have their say.
The setting
makes it quite easy to start the discussions. All participants
introduced themselves and their projects.
We changed tables several times, in order to meet as many as possible.
Many interesting thoughts were shared as the questions were in focus
rather that answers.
The event was also captured on the walls, in drawings and graphic images
representing key ideas.
