Are Interact and Rotaract bridges to Rotary?

Transcript :

Interact and Rotaract are effective gateways to Rotary, provided that active support is provided.

These programs allow young people to discover, from adolescence, the fundamental values of Rotary: service, commitment, ethics and international openness.

By developing their leadership skills and participating in concrete actions, young Interactors and then Rotaractors acquire valuable experience and a spirit of service that naturally predisposes them to join Rotary.

However, the transition to adulthood is often accompanied by professional constraints, mobility or personal priorities which can hinder this transition.

To strengthen this bridge, it is essential to create lasting links: sponsorships, intergenerational projects, regular invitations to Rotary club meetings.

By promoting continuity between these three stages of commitment, Rotary ensures that it passes on its heritage and renews its membership with members already steeped in its culture.
