The World Cafe was developed by Juanita Brown and David Isaacs in the 1990s. They created this conversational process to facilitate meaningful dialogues and engage people in exploring complex issues in a collaborative and participatory manner. It has since been widely used in various settings to promote dialogue, collective learning, and innovative problem-solving.
