Impressions Konekta24

A weekend full of encounters and inspiration

(Blog post from 10 September 2024 by Felix Furrer: Konekta 2024)

The Cevi movement is colourful and diverse – and it was precisely this diversity that we wanted to celebrate in style. Over 450 motivated leaders from across the Cevi Switzerland umbrella organisation travelled to take part in this year's Konekta. On the very first evening, a special highlight awaited the participants: solo artist Aaron Asteria impressed the audience with his stylish sounds and created a relaxed yet inspiring atmosphere. For many, however, it wasn't just the music that took centre stage, but also the reunion with old acquaintances – cheerful groups formed everywhere and filled the entire grounds with laughter.

Konekta 2024 did not end with the official programme for the day. For the tireless, the party continued: there was celebrating, playing and laughing late into the night in the training centre premises.

Saturday was all about workshops and exciting stands spread across the entire site. Whether it was enjoying an excellent coffee, learning about prevention and the international dimension of Cevi, or demonstrating your skills at traditional fire-making, there was something for everyone.

In the evening, three first-class concerts ensured a good atmosphere: the acts by Gitter und Roscht, Adams Wedding and Crimer were celebrated and danced to exuberantly. The positive energy of the community was clearly felt here.

Finally, the big movement conference took place on Sunday. For many, it was the first time they had experienced live how important decisions are made.

Saturday was then devoted entirely to workshops and exciting stands spread across the entire site.

Finally, the big movement conference took place on Sunday. For many, it was the first time they had witnessed live how important decisions for the future of the Cevi movement were made. Among other things, the agenda included the Conveniat and several motions submitted on site.

We look back with pride on a successful Konekta 2024, which not only celebrated the diversity of the Cevi movement, but also highlighted the common interests and solidarity of the leaders. This event brought the movement together in an impressive way. We are already looking forward to the next Konekta! for the future of the Cevi movement.
