Zones 24 and 25 will host the Presidential Conference on Environmental Sustainability and Peace - one of six international peacebuilding conferences planned for the 2017-18 Rotary Year.  President-Elect Ian Riseley has made environmental sustainability a major focus for his year and we are honored that he has chosen Vancouver to hold the first Presidential Conference on this key area.
