Adventures in Citizenship

The Rotary Adventure in Citizenship program was instituted by the Rotary Club of Ottawa in 1951. In the spring of each year, over 200 outstanding senior high school students from across Canada spend four days in the National Capital in a program designed to develop their potential as leaders in their communities and in Canadian society.

This annual event provides a unique opportunity for a selected group of young Canadians to come together and gain a better understanding of our country.  Through meetings with political leaders, senior officials and others, they learn a great deal about the workings of our democratic institutions.  Through meeting one another and having discussions among themselves they learn to appreciate the diversity of Canada and the privileges and responsibilities of citizenship.
