Zone Institutes
Rotary International Institutes are meetings designed for participation by past, present and incoming District Governors and are held each year at appropriate locations within the zones.
The purposes of a Rotary International Institute are to:
- Inform accurately all current and past Rotary International (RI) officers concerning the policies and programs of RI, including those of its Foundation;
- Promote support for these policies and program while also soliciting suggestions for improvements and innovations;
Inform the RI Board of successful program developments at the zone level which the RI Board may want to consider for further development; - Inspire, motivate, and inform governors about leadership and
- Provide a forum for learning, discussion and inspiration, which will engender fellowship, and a team spirit among all participants.
Participants are limited to past, current and incoming RI officers unless by specific invitation. A representative of The Rotary Foundation attends to promote the objects of The Foundation and update the knowledge of attendees.
