FUTURE VISION PLAN Five priorities: • Simplify all programs and operations • Align program outcomes/descriptions with the Future Vision Plan • Increase participation and sense of ownership at district and club levels • Provide sufficient resources to achieve the program goals • Develop a business model that supports the Future Vision Plan
Areas of Focus • Peace and conflict resolution/prevention • Disease prevention and treatment • Water and sanitation • Maternal and child health • Basic education and literacy • Economic and community development
2011-12 TRF Trustee Chair Bill Boyd said the areas of focus under the Future Vision Plan allow Rotarians to carry out projects with a common purpose, in a way that will benefit as many people as possible. "All of us should work to build those six areas of focus into the culture and thinking of every Rotary club," he said. "We should seek opportunities to build partnerships between clubs and districts, our Rotary Foundation, and other organizations that can join us in our mission to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through the improvement of health, the support of education, and the alleviation of poverty."
