The World Talks The world's biggest dialogue experiment

I have long been a fan of Randomised Coffee Trials (RCTs) — social experiments where people are randomly matched for coffee meetings to facilitate knowledge sharing and relationship building. If you’re unfamiliar with the concept, you can learn more about it in my blook.

Typically, RCTs are run within organizations or networks, although the Red Cross has also organized them globally.

Now, imagine if “every person” in the world had the opportunity to converse with someone from a different part of the globe, transcending borders and diverse backgrounds. This ambitious idea forms the foundation of an event called “The World Talks,” which will occur on June 25, 2023. Today, May 31, over 4,000 participants, including myself, have registered.

“The World Talks” is a remarkable initiative inviting individuals to sign up and converse with strangers worldwide. It’s a fantastic opportunity to broaden your horizons, gain new perspectives, and foster global connections. You can sign up at The World Talks if you would like to participate.
