2nd INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE

ROTARY’s NEW GENERATIONS SERVICE EXCHANGE PROGRAM

21 and 22 November 2020

Over 700 participants from 52 countries attended the 2nd international conference of the NGSE program – virtually.

The program comprised speeches, interactive workshops, presentations, short inputs (including from Dieter and Kitt!) … and a message from RI President, Holgar Knaak!

One of the key conference messages was:

· Established in 2013, more education and marketing need to be done of the NGSE program at all levels, from International to Club levels

To promote understanding of the program among our Club members, I offer the following:

The NGSE is a program for young adults, 18-30 years of age, the main goals of which are:

· Job shadowing

· Service experience

· Immersion in the culture of the country, province, district concerned

· Promoting international peace, goodwill and understanding

· Personal growth, leadership development, widening the perspective of the participant

· The development of a new generation of Rotarians

If you would like to play an active role in this program at Club and or District level, please contact me!
