WELCOME

The 2024 World Convention of Cocaine Anonymous (CA) is coming to Holland!!!!!! Our World Convention will bring together CA members from all around the world to share their experience, strength, and hope. The 2024 convention is scheduled to take place in Noordwijkerhout, Netherlands, from 11 till 15 July, under the theme of “Hope, Faith, Courage.” For those who are not able to physically attend the convention we will have a tailored online experience to ensure everyone can get a taste of CAWS 2024.

Our convention is a momentous occasion for CA members, you will have the opportunity to attend various meetings, speakers, workshops, and excursions. These events will be geared towards promoting the spirit of camaraderie and support, which are critical to our recovery.

One of the main objectives of the World Convention is to provide support to the newcomer. Together we can achieve this if we all bring newcomers to the convention [#BRINGANEWCOMER] and putting them “on fire”, through sharing our personal stories, discussions on how we stay clean & sober, and various workshops aimed at helping our members develop and maintain their recovery.

If you are financially unable to pay for (part of) the registration you can apply for the Fellow2Fellow fund (Scholarship). The Fellow2Fellow fund is made possible by voluntary contributions from members of our fellowship. To apply for a scholarship please send an email to our convention chair: chair@caws2024.nl

Do you want to make a donation to the Fellow 2 fellow fonds / scholarship? You can use the registration form and fill in the amount in the donation options. If you have any questions please contact: registration@caws2024.nl

HOTEL

** UPDATE * (Sunday the 8th of September 2023)
Dear CA Friends, we were overwhelmed by the number of fellows that have reserved a room for CAWS 2024 in the NH Hotel Noordwijkerhout with the SATURDAY now SOLD-OUT. We are happy to announce that we have been able to organize 80 EXTRA ROOMS at the NH SCHIPHOL, located only 20 minutes away from the main venue and a DAILY TRANSFER to the convention hotel and back. These rooms are now available for you to make your reservation. Click on the links below to make your reservation:

Camping site:
For the more adventurous types in our fellowship, we can share a tip with you. There is a camping site near
the hotel. It’s only a 10-ish minute walk (1 km or 0,6 miles). The convention will be in the summer, so it could
be a great alternative. It is a bit cheaper too 😉 I know from experience that CA will be well represented on the
camping site.
You have to bring your own tent, caravan or other material since they don’t offer any pre-set up tents. If you’re
interested, go visit: www.campingophoopvanzegen.nl, and make sure to make your reservation on time.

The NH Noordwijk Conference Centre Leeuwenhorst is a four-star hotel located in the Netherlands’ beautiful flower bulb region only 15 mins from Schiphol International Airport. Convention-goers will find plenty to do, as the centre is perfectly situated for excursions to Amsterdam, or Noordwijk, a well-known beach resort only a stone’s throw away.

Our team has made an amazing deal with the hotel for our convention guests. Book your room for single use for only 170 euro per night including breakfast.

Want to share the room with a fellow? Only 15 euro per night extra. If you want to share a room with more then 1 fellow we have limited triple and quadruple rooms that are only bookable by direct contact with the hotel.
