Share Your Stories of Impact
We will be publishing a
Field Book of key Stories of Impact - a collection of stories about where World Café has had a significant influence/impact in a variety of sectors. We're also generating a list of where World Cafés are being held around the world.
The purpose of these efforts is to create resources that ensure that practitioners everywhere have the legitimacy, leverage, and tools we need to work with a broad range of constituencies. Your stories are an important part of this initiative.

Host a Local Impact Café
Anytime During October, 2015
Use this 20th Anniversary as inspiration to bring your community together and have the meaningful conversations that are so needed at this time. Where are your people ready to act, but lacking the collective confidence to take next steps? What are the conversations that are now ready to be engaged?
Whether it's around issues of food security, inter-generational relationships, police and military accountability, education, refugees and border issues, race relations, or whatever is "hot" where you live - host a Local Impact Café that aims to effect positive change in your region.
 Listings will be displayed publicly so that everyone in your area can join in. As a host, you agree to follow the theme of global Impact (open to your unique twist!) and harvest your Café using a common format. Individual harvests will be posted online, along with a collective harvest of the "whole". |
Attend a Local Impact Café
Join with others in your community to address key issues in your region. Celebrate the power of conversation to initiate wise action and impact change. Activate friendships, new and old, by being part of a Local Impact Café where you live.
Globally supported, self-organized Local Impact Cafés will be happening throughout October in locations all over the world.
Listings Coming Soon

Attend a Global Impact Café
Be part of one of the Global Impact Cafés held online in November, 2015 (at times convenient in your part of the world) to harvest and build on the themes emerging from the Local Impact Cafés.
If you have hosted or attended a Local Impact Café, you'll want to add your voice to the themes being harvested, and even if you were unable to attend a Local Impact Café, this is a powerful opportunity to engage with and be inspired by an international community of practitioners making a difference in the world.
Registration Opening in September

Gift Your Support
The first two decades of the World Café have been largely supported through the gift economy, which has been both wonderful and challenging. In order to assure our continued learning and sharing, we are reliant on everyone's support and contribution. Join the global community of practitioners ensuring the World Café's health and vitality into the future, by making a financial contribution to the World Café Community Foundation:
