Rotaract Ghana climaxes annual national training in Ho
Rotaract Ghana which falls under District 9102 annually organizes this leadership and mentorship training sessions for her members who are Rotaractors, Interactors and Guests with few Rotarians. Rotaract Ghana National officers and outstanding Rotaractors were invited to share their scintillating experiences with participants for the past years that they have been members.
This training session was held in all the segmented zones of Rotaract Ghana which are A ,B, C, F ,D and E. Zone E climaxed it all in Ho.
The session experienced various lectures on Rotary brand guidelines, membership retention plan development and maintenance, leadership and skills development with key Rotarians and guests who are well vested in the above areas of specialization.
In an interview with Mr. Emmanuel Saadong, the National Secretary of Rotaract Ghana, he expressed his flood of impression about this year's event and revealed that over 400 ladies and gentlemen who fall within the Rotaract/Interact circle participated in this training session.
He said, he is hopeful all that had been learnt from the training such as how to INSPIRE, CONNECT, TRANSFORM and END POLIO will indigenously be put to use .
Rotaract originally began as a Rotary International youth program in 1968 at Charlotte North Rotary Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, United States. It has grown into a major Rotary-sponsored organization of over 9,522 clubs spread around the world and 291,006 members.
It is a service, leadership, professional and community service organization (often miscommunicated as a Social Service Club) for young men and women between the ages 18–30 (membership will end upon reaching 31 years of age)
Rotaract focuses on the development of young adults as leaders in their communities and workplaces.
"Rotaract" stands for "Rotary in Action", although the name originally comes from a combination of "Rotary" and "Interact" (International + Action), the high school level program created by Rotary International in 1962.
Most Rotaract activities take place at the club level. Rotaract clubs hold formal meetings, usually every two weeks, which feature speakers, special outings, social activities, discussions or visits to other clubs. Club members get together on designated days for service project work, social events, or professional/leadership development.
The avenues of service include Club Service, Community Service, International Service and Professional Development.
