Rotary and positive peace

Transcript :

Peace is not limited to the absence of violence, but consists of creating societies allowing the development of all.

Rotary, in partnership with the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP), provides its members with the tools to become peacemakers.

Their actions, such as supporting local businesses, installing toilets in schools or building play areas for children with disabilities, aim to invest in the community and promote positive peace.

This peace rests on eight pillars: low levels of corruption, acceptance of universal rights, free access to information, business-friendly conditions, high levels of human capital, equitable distribution of resources, good relations with neighbors and good governance.

Rotary offers free training through Positive Peace University and encourages members to host workshops and incorporate these principles into their projects, with support from local experts.
