The Rotary Foundation seminar will deal with fine examples of successful projects, concrete resources that are available for good project planning and collaboration among districts in making larger projects possible. There will be group sessions to plan new local, regional and international ways of service.
We will also give you an update on our priority number one: Eradication of Polio.
