WORLD CAFE
by ALDA
Objectives
General objective
• To brainstorm and debate on the role of social
cooperatives and the effectiveness of their work
Specific objective
• To formulate common guidelines on four specific subtopics: how to promote youth entrepreneurship in the
social field; what communication strategy better fits the
needs of social cooperatives; what profiles and
competencies are requested; how to liaise with LAs and
local stakeholders
1. How does it work?
Let’s set 4 tables in the room, with around 9/10 chairs for each table.
Each table is led by a café leader, who will introduce the topic to be
tackled and moderate the discussion
Please take a seat around your table and start the discussion on the topic
identified
You have 20 minutes to discuss the topic of the table you sat at.
Once the 20 minutes have passed, you shall move to another table and
participate in the discussion on the topic there identified (the rule of two
legs!).
After 20 minutes, you move again and pick another table. Thus, you will
be contributing to the discussions of each of the four topics identified.
2. How does it work?
The café leaders will take notes of the debate
and report it in the plenary session.
This part aims at presenting suggestions,
opinions and recommendations collected
during the debates and at integrating them in
an open discussion with a larger public
