The Rotary Peace Hub
A vibrant community space for connections, learning and fun for peace-minded Rotarians.
The Rotary Peace Hub – a 15 m x 15 m pavilion inside the House of Friendship at the annual Rotary International Convention – is a vibrant community space that celebrates and promotes Rotary peacebuilding. Featuring daily programming and offering a natural gathering place, the Peace Hub is designed for Rotarians interested in fostering greater peace in their districts, clubs and communities.
Since its launch in Melbourne in 2023, the Peace Hub stage has hosted over 60 speakers, including 5 RI presidents, over 6,000 convention attendees have actively engaged with its exhibits, and generated over 1.5 million impressions on social media.
There is a 2024 Rotary Peace Park report available if you are interested.
We are hard at work in making the 2025 Peace Park have an even larger impact on the Rotary Peace building community in Calgary. Please join us!
The Objectives of the Rotary Peace Park are:
- Raise the profile of Rotary peacebuilding
- Inspire Rotary members to engage or deepen their involvement with peace activities
- Establish a shared community within the organizations, initiatives and action groups of the Rotary Peace ecosystem
The Rotary Action Group for Peace is currently accepting donations for the Rotary Peace Park in Calgary.
Please donate to help make the 2025 Rotary Peace Park a reality.
