Basic Education and Literacy Month

Basic Education and Literacy - Pathway to Impact

This is an overview of Basic Education and Literacy - Pathway to Impact. The Pathways to Impact are a set of goals, concepts and ideas that can help members create service projects that meet community needs, are sustainable, and result in measurable change. Practical tools and materials will eventually support every stage of a project - from planning and alignment to measurement and storytelling so that impact lasts beyond the project itself. Members, partners, and donors can use the guidance and resources to strengthen storytelling around impact, align projects with Rotary’s strategic priorities, and demonstrate measurable results and long-term change.

Strong Rotary clubs don’t happen by accident. They depend on members stepping into leadership roles with a clear understanding of what those roles involve.

Just as importantly, how do we know whether something is actually required by Rotary International — or whether it is simply something our club has always done?

Let’s take a closer look.

CBC London published an article regarding the declining memberships in service clubs and what some clubs are doing to reverse the trend.
