Rotary promotes cultural understanding and brings people together, even when they live worlds apart. Rotary's exchange programs foster the free flow of ideas and opportunities across national borders. Through Rotary, youth, scholars, and professionals experience the culture and people of another land - and return home to share their new understanding with others. Some 7,000 secondary-school students participate annually in short- or long-term Rotary Youth Exchanges. The Rotary Foundation's Ambassadorial Scholarships program is the world's largest privately funded international scholarships program. More than 30,000 students from 100 countries have studied abroad as Rotary scholars. The Group Study Exchange program pairs Rotary districts in different countries to send and receive non-Rotary study groups comprised of young professionals. | |||||||
