TREE OF INTENTIONS

We invite you to leave the rush of the outer world behind and enter a space of deeper listening. Listening to yourself. To life. To what is emerging through you.

Inspired by Theory U, we are not here to plan the future from old patterns, but to sense into what wants to emerge, from the field of possibility, from our deeper purpose.

We begin by asking: Who am I? What is my work? What am I here to contribute? What is ready to emerge through me?

COMMUNITY GROUPS

Community Groups are a core part of the Caux IDG Forum experience, helping to build a sense of unity and shared purpose—“Let’s do this together!”

Meeting three times during the Forum (29 July / 30 July - Soul Nurture community group workshop / 31 July), these small, diverse groups of around 15 participants offer a space to reflect on the plenary themes, exchange ideas, and learn from one another’s lived experiences.

Guided by two community group facilitators, each session creates a safe, respectful environment where deep conversations can flourish and real connections begin.

With ground rules rooted in trust, inclusion, and care, these groups invite you to be fully present, listen openly, and speak from the heart—if and when you feel ready and are often a great place to forge new and inspiring friendships.

CANDLELIGHT CONVERSATIONS

Step into the heart of the Caux IDG Forum with our signature Candlelight Conversations—an inspiring evening experience designed to spark deep, authentic dialogue.

Set in softly lit rooms at the Caux Palace, these sessions create a serene and reflective atmosphere for meaningful exchanges. Select a conversation group based on a topic that resonates with you, each guided by one or more conversation lead(s)/facilitator(s) to ensure a smooth and enriching experience.

With intentionally small group sizes and a focus on trustbuilding, the Caux Candlelight Conversations offer a unique opportunity to go beyond the surface, share perspectives, and be part of conversations that truly matter.

Pick up your candle, find your circle, and be part of a dialogue that lights the way forward!

As "The Week" unfolds, Part 2 invites us to go deeper.

Through compelling storytelling and honest group dialogue, it guides participants from initial shock and awareness to a shared sense of purpose and the courage to act.

This is not just about learning -  it’s about moving through the crisis, together.

Closing the CIDG Forum with Music & Meaning

As the Caux IDG Forum draws to a close, we invite you to gather for a powerful final evening featuring a live concert by Giulia Dabalà (Switzerland/Italy) - singer, producer, and rising creative force.

Influenced by her childhood in Myanmar and her Swiss-Italian roots, Giulia’s music fuses alt-pop, folk, and experimental electronic sounds. With a voice that is both raw and magnetic, she weaves stories of femininity, resilience, and emotional truth - turning vulnerability into strength.

This special concert is made possible with the support of the Montreux Jazz Artists Foundation.
