"There are many pathways to peace, and in Rotary, we are fortunate to have Rotary Peace Fellows who demonstrate this truth time and again. Each year, Rotary awards up to 130 fellowships for leaders around the world to study peace and development, and what these peace fellows learn prepares them to work in conflict prevention and resolution and promote Positive Peace."
Read Rotary International President McInally's message including how the Peace Fellowships promote sustainability practices for farmers in rural Latin American countries, how RI is fighting racism through the work of the Racial Equity Project, and how communities can better utilize data to manage disasters here.
