We have been invited to participate in the Caux Initiatives of Change 2016 program, in particular in the International Peace Builder’s Forum. By partnering with the Johannesburg International Comedy Festival, we are bringing [4] renown international comedians to Switzerland, who have personally gone through conflict situations and who are able to share their experiences with others through comedy.

We can laugh together and discover each other as part of the same amazing humanity!
