The World Café (also known as Conversation Café) is a highly adaptable methodology designed to facilitate meaningful conversations in groups of all sizes. It provides a hospitable space for people to share experiences, explore questions that matter, and listen together for patterns and insights. This method encourages collective intelligence and can surface creative ideas, shared values, and potential actions.

Ideal for use in community engagement, visioning processes, and participatory planning, World Café is particularly effective in supporting the building of relationships, shared understanding, and collaborative action. Its informal café-style format invites participants to engage in multiple rounds of small group dialogue, moving between tables and cross-pollinating ideas.
