On Waldzell 2005
The coming together of people with such rich and diverse backgrounds at Melk for the Waldzell Meeting was a testament to how people have a shared view for a better tomorrow. The "Architects of the Future" program was a pioneering effort to make the young people stakeholders in our collective future. The setting, the ambience, the mood, the subjects and the deliberations were all aimed at working jointly to create a future that is truly meaningful in every sense of the word. The experience at the Waldzell Meeting was exhilarating and thought-provoking.
