International Caux Conference 2012
Tapping civil society’s potential
The aim of this conference cycle is to gather and equip those who wish to play their part in creating more inclusive intercultural environments. This year’s conference builds on the outcomes and results generated in 2011 and will focus on actions that host and diaspora communities can take together in the four identified priority areas: rethinking our personal attitudes and motivations, challenging and transforming power imbalances, exploring the transformative role of education and learning, and strengthening and expanding relationships between communities. Besides plenary sessions, case studies and facilitated discussions, the conference will also offer training modules and provide a platform for exchange of best practices.
Who we are: Initiatives of Change (IofC) is a world-wide movement of people of diverse cultures and backgrounds, who are committed to the transformation of society through changes in human motives and behaviour, starting with their own.

Purpose: We work to inspire, equip and connect people to address world needs, starting with themselves, in the areas of trustbuilding, ethical leadership and sustainable living.
