Rotary South Pacific News

Rotary is actively working to change lives. These are just a sample of the hundreds of projects across the South Pacific and beyond.

Rotary Give Every Child a Future (RGECAF)
 
Our centenary projected protect 100,000 children from across nine South Pacific Island countries over three years in partnership with UNICEF.
Children were vaccinated against rotavirus and pneumococcal bacteria to reduce illness and deaths from gastroenteritis, pneumonias, meningitis and bacteraemia.
Adolescent girls were vaccinated against the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) to prevent cervical cancer in later life.
We will continue to strengthen the immunisation programs in each country so that these vaccines continue to be delivered to future generations of children.
 
 
Respectful Relationships
The “Say NO to domestic and family violence and YES to respectful relationships” campaign aims to end domestic violence while supporting those affected by it. Domestic violence is experienced in all communities, and we are working hard on programs that will educate all, particularly young people, about respectful relationships.
 
 
Disaster Relief
 
Rotary is always ready to take action to help communities recover when disasters strike. We respond by asking “what do you need” and work with others to give immediate and ongoing help.
Whether in one of the Rotary South Pacific countries or further afield, Rotary works hard to help those who are suffering after fire, flood, Cyclone, earthquake, volcanic eruption or other disaster.
