Riseley challenged Rotarians to lead by protecting the environment and curbing climate change around the world. Another focus of the president-elect’s theme is to secure Rotary’s future by improving gender and age balance in clubs. Watch Riseley’s International Assembly speech and include the 2017-18 presidential theme and citation in your training. | ||
