Rotary's Board of Directors voted in 2019 to adopt a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Statement:
As a global network that strives to build a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change, Rotary values diversity and celebrates the contributions of people of all backgrounds, regardless of their age, ethnicity, race, color, abilities, religion, socioeconomic status, culture, sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity.
Rotary will cultivate a diverse, equitable, and inclusive culture in which people from underrepresented groups have greater opportunities to participate as members and leaders.
This statement is an exciting step forward in Rotary's commitment to creating a positive environment for current and future members, as well as the communities they serve.
