The Visuals
Visuals are an integral part of the World Café process. Harvesting the ideas emerging from the wold café in a graphic format brings them to life and helps the participants see the results of their collective thinking grow and take shape as the event unfolds. Graphics were drawn "live" by visual artist Manuel Chopard.

The participants themselves also created visuals by doodling and noting their ideas on the paper table cloths and on post-it notes which were then assembled on flipchart sheets along the walls of the venue, to be seen by everyone.Facilitators Pascale and Saba contributed to the creation of visuals by noting the main ideas of the collective town meeting discussions on flipcharts. These clouds of key words faithfully portray the richness of this group encounter.
All these visuals put together are a precious support that allow us transmit what took place in the world café, to share the contents with others and to describe, as far as possible, the magic that happened in the middle, the innovative ideas and the common intentions that emerged when the "system connected with itself".
