Council on Legislation takes action | Representatives to the 2022 Council on Legislation 10-14 April voted overwhelmingly to add “equity and inclusion” to Rotary International’s bylaws, affirming the organization’s continued effort to be inclusive of all cultures, experiences, and identities, and to reflect the communities it serves. The five-day conference in Chicago, Illinois, USA, marked Rotary’s first successful attempt to host a hybrid international event since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Representatives also supported a dues increase and a pilot that would test a new governance structure. Learn more about the council action. | |
