Rotary has a long history of working with youth, from providing scholarships, encouraging youth leadership and student exchange programs, to sponsoring youth-based service clubs. Youth Service is one of Rotary\u2019s five official Avenues of Service. By nurturing youth, Rotarians can provide the skills young people need to succeed as future community leaders. Youth Programs provide Rotarians the opportunity to develop their own leadership and communication skills and also provides for many incredible moments !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year we have achieved many imaginative achievements in youth services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ROTARACT<\/p>\n\n\n

Our service partner Rotaract has initiated the District Service Project on \u201cHearing Impaired\u201d matters, we have great support from our Rotaractors, and the final stage will be held on 22nd June. Apart from this meaningful project, a large face-to-face spring lunch was successfully organsied among our university-based Rotary clubs in February. The District Conference cum District Leadership Training Meeting will also be held in June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rotary Youth Leadership Awared (RYLA)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

A very successful RYLA was organized this year with close to 30 participants. This was the 1st time for us to have the opening and closing ceremony held at The XiQu Centre for Chinese Opera at the West Kowloon Cultural District. Each RYLA team conducted awesome presentations after 4-days 3-nights\u2019 training and have learned a lot about local community issues and provided imaginative solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In summary, this was a very productive and fruitful year in District Youth service developments, we look forward to have another successful year in 2023-24.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
