About the Event

Are you a Caux Scholar alumni? If yes, then this event is for you! The CSP–GAIN Alumni Convention, happening 28 July - 2 August 2026, will bring together Caux Scholars from the past three decades for a global, intergenerational gathering at Caux, Switzerland, in the summer of 2026.

This special convening is open exclusively to alumni of the Caux Scholars Program, along with faculty, facilitators, coordinators, and partners who have contributed to the programme’s journey.

The convention (28 July - 2 August 2026) is designed as a space to rekindle the spirit of Caux and focus on reflection, dialogue, community, and creativity.

It offers the alumni a chance to reconnect with one another and with the wider CSP journey. Over a span of five days, participants will experience a programme that includes panel discussions, alumni-led workshops, networking circles, and creative sessions. It will be an opportunity to return to the atmosphere of Caux, learn about the alumni-led work across regions, and spark new collaborations.

Alumni who join will gain renewed inspiration, deeper networks, and a strengthened sense of belonging to a global community of peacebuilders.

Hosted by IofC USA in collaboration with the Caux Initiatives of Change Foundation, the convention will take place alongside the Caux Forum 2026.
