Creating peace for 60 years

In 1946, the former Caux-Palace Hotel in the Swiss village of Caux opened its doors to the world as an international conference centre for Initiatives of Change (then known as Moral Re-Armament). Sixty years on, each Northern summer the Caux assembly draws between 1400 and 2000 people of all walks of life to be part of a continuous series of conferences dealing with specific subjects. It is at Caux that many of the Initiatives of Change programmes are developed.
