Community

🎉 **Celebrating 10 Years of IAF Belgium (April 2016-2026)** What began with a single conversation has grown into a vibrant and welcoming facilitation community. Over the past decade, together with initiators, board members, facilitators, and the facili-curious, we have co-created more than *100 events* dedicated to learning, collaboration, and meaningful dialogue. To celebrate this milestone, we invite you to join us for a **special anniversary dinner** and an evening of shared memories, conversations, and connection. ✨ **What to expect** The evening will unfold in *two phases*: **1️⃣ Interactive reflection & celebration** We will begin with a short interactive facilitation moment led by *Ralph and Marie,* inviting participants to reflect on and share memories from our journey together. Through a few reflective questions, we’ll revisit experiences from the past 10 years: • What was your **first IAF Belgium experience**? • Which **IAF Belgium event** has stayed with you the most? • Why is **IAF Belgium meaningful for you today**? **2️⃣ Anniversary dinner** After the facilitation, we will continue the celebration with a **shared dinner** and informal conversations. 🍽️ **Please note:** This is a **dinner gathering**, and participants will **order and pay for their own meal**. 🥂 **IAF Belgium will offer the first drink** to celebrate the occasion. 🎶 There may also be **music during the evening** to accompany the celebration & goodies *(to be confirmed)*. Whether you have been part of the journey from the beginning or recently discovered the community, you are warmly invited to join us in celebrating this milestone. 🙏 **With deep gratitude, we recognize the people whose dedication, energy, and generosity helped shape and grow this community over the past 10 years:** * **Identified speakers non-exhaustive list at our meetups until April 2026**: Nathaniel Cadwell, Tanya Van Rompuy, Christopher Malapitan, David Villalobos, Pieter Daelman, Sandrine Grenier, Simon Koolwijk, Jeffer London, Dirk Wouters, Johan Debeer, Ralf Otto, Ana Adzersen, Anita Sheehan, Ana Escarpenter, Bruno Selun, Meghan Kelly, Monica Dimitriu, Marie Dubost, Marc Sonnaert, Hilde Nicassi, Kasia Skuratowicz, April Bilbrey, Lara Donners, Andrew Spireti, Claudia Arena, Andy Whittle, Klaus Niederlander, Anuschka Ruge, Sue Bird, Graziana Lonero, Agnes Gorgemans, Luc de Schrijver, Joost Visser, Jord Rolland de Rengervé, Richard G.

**Sommes-nous devenus les simples managers de notre existence ?** Courir après le temps, cocher des listes de tâches, jongler entre les responsabilités professionnelles et les impératifs familiaux... Notre quotidien ressemble souvent à une course de fond où chaque minute est rentabilisée. Mais au milieu de ce tourbillon, une question finit par surgir : **où est passé notre esprit ?** À force de répondre aux besoins des autres et aux urgences du calendrier, nous risquons de devenir étrangers à nous-mêmes. Est-il encore possible de cultiver une vie intérieure quand l'agenda est complet ? La philosophie est-elle un luxe réservé à ceux qui ont du temps, ou une nécessité vitale pour ne pas s'oublier ? **Lors de ce dialogue philosophique, nous ferons une pause pour explorer ensemble :** * **La dictature de l’utile :** Pourquoi nous sentons-nous coupables dès que nous ne "produisons" rien ? * **Retrouver son centre :** Comment l'esprit peut-il rester libre au milieu des contraintes ? * **La quête de sens :** Comment transformer nos obligations quotidiennes en une vie qui nous ressemble vraiment ? Nul besoin d’avoir lu tous les classiques. Venez simplement avec votre fatigue, vos interrogations et votre envie de redonner une place à la réflexion au milieu du chaos. ✨ **Offrez-vous une parenthèse pour respirer et remettre l'esprit au cœur de votre vie.** *** **Infos pratiques :** * **Tarif :** 5€ (boisson comprise) * **Esprit :** Un moment d'échange pour déconnecter du "faire" et se reconnecter au "penser".

Story Night is back with a new group of talented storytellers will share their stories to make you think, laugh and cry! **Story Night Brussels: an evening of connection and community through personal stories** Looking for a different kind of Saturday night? Join us for the one and only Story Night of Storytelling Brussels! Storytelling Brussels aims to create a space where we pause, connect, and experience our shared humanity through the power of stories. A space where everyday experiences become well-crafted narratives with meaning and impact. Stories that will make you laugh, cry, reflect, feel. Come with an open mind and leave with a full heart. **Event Details:** * Each storyteller has prepared a short (around 8 minutes) personal story. * **Venue**: the Bridge Theatre Studio; Chau. de Forest 83, St. Gilles * **Doors open 19:30.** Show starts at 20:00 (sharp!). More than just a show, we want to create a community around storytelling, so **we encourage you to come early**, socialize, and maybe meet new people! There will be music and drinks available at the bar. We are starting again at 8 pm to allow for more storytellers and not end too late! Please note that the **front door of the venue might be closed once the show starts**, as it’s a private space, so you might not be able to enter if you are too late! * Attention! We will be collecting **donations upon check-in at the door.** We recommend a donation of **10€/person**, but if you can't pay this at the moment, feel free to make a donation of your choice. All the earnings will go to compensate the performers (some of whom will be traveling long distances for this event) and organise more of these in the future. **Please bring cash**. * All stories will be told in **English** * We kindly ask you to be present and listen actively to the stories.

Space is limited, so secure your spot by booking today! If in the end you cannot make it, please cancel your reservation so someone else might take your spot. Please note that if you haven’t arrived by the time the show starts, your spot might be given to someone else. **What is storytelling?** Sharing stories in front of an audience may well be the oldest form of art. This ancient oral tradition is experiencing a modern revival through organizations like The Moth in New York, the Mezrab in Amsterdam, or The Bear in Berlin. Now, it is Brussels’ turn! Though deeply connected to many other disciplines, storytelling is an artform on its own. It might make you laugh, but it's not stand-up comedy. It might make you think, but it's not a TED talk. It make help you heal, but it's not therapy. Ultimately, it's about connecting with each other, sharing and celebrating life. **Want to tell a story?** We believe everyone has a story to tell, and we welcome everyone who wants to dare! Previous performance experience is a plus, but **not necessarily required.** We simply ask you to fill up the form below and commit to respect the format (you will have priority if you have come to our shows before).

This is a very special group walk! If you haven't visited the forest outside of the town Halle in the spring, then we highly recommend joining or going on your own time. During the spring, the Hallerbos is blooming with beautiful hyacinths covering the forest floor. You can get a sneak peak [here](https://www.hallerbos.be/). Over the years this has turned into quite the tourist attraction, which is why we decided to plan the walk during the week. Another special aspect of this group walk is that we will have a "guide" that not only grew up in this area, but is also in charge of expat services at the tourism department of Flemish Brabant. Nona will give some extra insight into the area and guide us through the first. **Meeting point**: Leuven train station \- We will take the train from Leuven to Halle\. Departure \(normally from platform B\) at 11:41 arrival 12:52\. We will meet outside of the Madmum on the station square at \(no later than\!\) 11:30 and walk to the platform together\. \- From the train station in Halle we will take a bus to the forest\. Please note that this walk is subject to the blooming of the flowers and the weather. If the flowers haven't bloomed yet, then we will cancel the walk. We did the best at estimating the time the flowers will bloom, since every year it is different. You are responsible to get your own train and bus ticket, and we will handle the guiding part :) Make sure to wear good walking shoes and bring water and maybe a snack! We will walk maximum 8km, on walking paths through the forest.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

Sleep in on Sundays. When you've had your fill of pajama-time, roll out and have some tasty brunch with your fellow Humanists!
