A particularly intense year full of initiatives, guided by the motto of the international president Gordon R. McInally “Let’s create hope in the world”.
The District Governor, Luigi Maione underlined how this Rotary year was characterized by numerous projects and activities that had a significant impact on local and international communities. “It has been an extraordinary year in many ways. We have worked to carry out projects that have made a difference and will continue to make a difference, inspired by the desire to create hope and improve people’s lives, with particular attention to the young generations, pursuing the goal of a positive peace that goes beyond the absence of conflicts”.
During the Congress, reports will be presented on the most significant projects relating to the Rotary areas of intervention, the environment and mental health, those designed to support the young generations and empowering girls. It will also be an opportunity to reflect on the results obtained and lay the foundations for future challenges. The exceptional contributions of individual Rotarians and clubs who have distinguished themselves through commitment and dedication will also be recognized.
The Congress, focused on the theme “A better world? Mission possible. Sustainability and impact investing” includes two moments of discussion open to the public with the possibility of exploring new ideas to continue creating a positive impact in communities, inspired by illustrious guests.
