Welcome to IAF India.

As we step into this next phase, IAF India is evolving with a clear intent—to strengthen facilitation as a capability that helps people engage with complexity, navigate differences, and move conversations toward constructive action. In a world marked by increasing conflicts and challenges, the ability to design and hold such inclusive spaces is both relevant and necessary.

Our focus is on shaping IAF India as a platform where facilitators can deepen their practice, broaden their perspectives, and meaningfully contribute to the systems they work in. You can look forward to learning spaces that are reflective and applied, community conversations that matter, and initiatives that help us reflect to real-world challenges more pragmatically.

IAF India draws its strength from its diversity—across regions, cultures, and sectors. This allows us to create offerings that are grounded, contextual, and inclusive, while staying aligned with global standards of professional excellence. Our work will continue to be guided by the IAF Core Competencies and Code of Ethics, ensuring integrity, quality, and credibility in all that we do.

Going ahead, our emphasis will be on deeper engagement with members, stronger collaboration across the community, and sustained efforts that amplify the impact of facilitation beyond events and programs. Whether through learning, volunteering, or co-creation, there will be multiple ways to engage and lead.

If facilitation is part of how you enable change—within organisations, communities, or society at large—this is a space to belong, contribute, and grow. I invite you to walk this journey with us and help shape what facilitation can enable in India.
