Leaders réfléchis. Les décideurs. Militants et experts.

Le Sedona Forum est le rassemblement annuel de haut niveau de l’Institut McCain, réunissant des dirigeants nationaux et internationaux, qui se tient chaque printemps à l’Enchantment Resort, dans la région des roches rouges de Sedona, en Arizona. Partant de l’hypothèse d’un leadership axé sur le caractère et des valeurs démocratiques fondamentales, le Sedona Forum réunit des leaders d’opinion, des décideurs, des activistes et divers experts pour discuter des approches et des solutions aux problèmes du monde réel.
