Rotary International is an international service organization with 1.2 Million members from around the world that brings community leaders together to provide service to others, to promote integrity and to advance world understanding, goodwill and peace. Each year, past, present, and incoming district and senior leaders attend Rotary institutes to share information, build connections, and exchange ideas about Rotary International and The Rotary Foundation. The institutes usually meet for three to five days, and the program includes: - An update on The Rotary Foundation and its programs - A report on our polio eradication efforts - A five-year forecast presented by a director or other Board representative - An open forum where participants can make recommendations to the Board - Local and international speakers sharing information on relevant topics - A chance to network, reconnect with friends and find inspiration for continuing your service and leadership in your community - Entertainment and social outings. During Council on Legislation years, Rotary institutes also include a session for Council representatives and alternates and a general session for discussing Council proposals. We look forward to your participation in making the Rotary Institute 2022 : RISE (Transcend Barriers) a grand success.
