Rotary International February Theme

Peacebuilding and Conflict Prevention is what every single Rotarian that follows the 4 Way Test can do...not just the fortunate few that The Rotary Foundation provides Global Peace Scholarships that will provide a world class education in this badly needed vocation.

Everyone of us can be peace builders and help prevent conflict in our communities by simply following the 4 way test. Is it the truth? Is fair to all concerned? Will it build good will and better friendships? Will it be beneficial to all concerned. When we do, peace is a by product and we avoid the conflicts that arise because of our differences.
