This
paper reflects on the adaptation of the World Café concept to engage with
members of the public in Compassionate Communities Café Conversation. This paper outlines the preparation, presentation, and pilot
evaluation of the Compassionate Communities Café Conversation experience in two
towns in the Mid-West of Ireland. The experience and findings suggest that this
approach offers a potentially very useful framework for use by others as part
of a health promoting approach to palliative care.
