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.

The Colwell Brothers and Herbie Allen: a musical odyssey around the world

It was a musical odyssey around the world. The veteran country and western group the Colwell Brothers from California, now in their seventies, had last performed in Caux, Switzerland, in 1961. Their first visit to the 'home for the world', as the Initiatives of Change centre in Caux was described, had been in 1953. Now they were back, with composer, pianist and xylophone player Herbie Allen, to give a barnstorming performance before a packed international audience in Caux's main hall on 14 August.
