A Rotarian Action Group (RAG) is a Rotary International approved autonomous, international group with a passion for a particular type of service. Rotarian Action Groups provide assistance and support to Rotary clubs and districts in planning and implementing service projects in their respective areas of expertise.
Rotarian Action Group for Peace – Our passion is PEACE. We are a group of committed Rotarians, Rotarians’ spouses, Rotaractors, Rotary Peace Fellows and other Rotary program alumni working together outside club structures with the help of telecommunications and driven by the common interest of peace.
Rotary is the perfect vehicle for making a positive impact toward world peace. There are few other non-religious groups the size of Rotary that are so globally united in their actions and interests. The Rotarian Action Group for Peace provides an official entity that empowers and supports Rotarians by offering structure, guidance and resources to further our collective peace efforts.
The impact that Rotary’s global network can have on peace will be tremendous. Consider the triumph of what Rotarians have done for polio. We can do the same for peace.
- We are working together to bring about peaceful societal systems to replace the machinery of war, aggression and coercion.
- We voluntarily choose to interact peacefully, learn more about the science of peace and create service projects that truly deepen our communities’ commitment to a more prosperous, healthy, fair and tolerant society.
- We have collectively come to the conclusion that peace is best for all, and its time has come.
- We share a belief that there is a worldwide, societal shift towards peace.
The worldwide interest in building a Rotarian peace coalition is significant and always growing. The need for a vehicle to provide centralized resources to Rotarians to plan and implement large-scale, community development and humanitarian service projects in the areas of war prevention, peacebuilding, peacekeeping and peacemaking is apparent. As the international peace system is continually strengthening, the time is right for further Rotarian leadership and involvement on peace issues.
Globally, every community has a role to play in advancing world understanding, tolerance, empathy, goodwill and peace. Join our results-focused network to gain powerful ideas, in-depth knowledge and direct means for action that align with the Rotary mission and strategic plan. Together, we can be a major factor in affecting policies on peace.
