World Cafe Series

What is a “World Café?”: A World Café is an approach to discussion based on clusters of people sharing their thoughts around specific questions.  Thoughts will be documented, clustered and themed and we’ll end the discussion by looking at some of the patterns, insights, further questions and recommendations that emerge.
