An update on the Regional Council
We’ve got so many exciting Pilot milestones to look forward to this year! We can’t wait to work with you and support you through these changes.
Please note our Pilot webinars will resume in February.
Don’t miss your chance to take part!
We're looking for talented Rotarians or Rotaractors to fill three vacancies on the Regional Council:
Portfolio Lead: Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (member of the Regional Council) - Learn more
Treasurer - Learn more
Corporate and Administration Lead - Learn more
These positions will be appointed rather than elected. For more information please email Zone8Elections@Rotary.org.
Submit your application by 5pm Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT) on Tuesday 30 January 2024 so you don’t miss out!
We need your opinion
Zone and District Conferences are a great way for Rotarians and Rotaractors to come together, network, share ideas and learn from each other.
Despite the enormous effort put into organising these conferences, attendance has fallen in recent years. We’d love to know what keeps you coming back to conferences and what deters you from attending, and understand your views on what could be improved and what should stay the same.
Complete our short survey to help shape the future of conferences in Zone 8.
What’s next?
There are some key milestones approaching in the coming months. Make sure your club knows what’s happening so you can take full advantage of these opportunities:
Clubs will be notified via email of their Rotary Community Groups (RCGs) in February, hold their first meeting in March, then elect their Rotary Community Leaders (RCLs) in April.
The Regional Council Portfolio Committees will be formed, with applications for Portfolio Committee Members opening next month.
Rotary Specialists will be selected after applications open in February.
