On June 4th, Brookline Rotary will begin a series of speakers we are calling "One World/One Rotary", whereby we will visit with a fellow Rotarian from a different country.  It is at this unique time in history, with the entire globe experiencing the same pandemic, that our membership in Rotary International, presents us with a singular opportunity to hear from other, like minded individuals, experiencing a similar threat in a different place.  As we have learned through our work with polio and with COVID 19,  illnesses are but a plane ride away.  We are all best served by knowing what is happening elsewhere and hearing about best practices wherever they may occur.  We would not be members in Rotary, if we did not believe in joining forces to solve issues and in helping others.
 
We have asked each speaker to address: the situation in their country, how their government/communities are handling the situation, and what their Rotary clubs are doing to stay true to our mission of service during this time of pandemic.  Please check our calendar on the website for the list of speakers and the country they represent.  Also, please share this with your friends and family.  All are welcome.
