Rotarian Action Groups (RAGs)

(logo: Rotarian Action Groups for the Alleviation of Hunger and Malnutrition)

Rotarian Action Groups

Rotarian Action Groups provide assistance and support to Rotary clubs and districts in planning and implementing service projects in their respective areas of expertise. They are autonomous, international groups organized by committed Rotarians, Rotarians’ spouses, and Rotaractors who have expertise in and a passion for a particular type of service.

How to get involved

If your club needs help with a service project, consider contacting a Rotarian Action Group with expertise in the appropriate area. If you have a personal interest in a particular issue, consider joining a group.

How to organize a new Rotarian Action Group

While Rotarian Action Groups operate independently of Rotary International, they must receive official recognition from the RI Board of Directors and function in accordance with Rotary policy.

Forming a new Rotarian Action Group requires time, long-term planning, and a commitment to establishing an effective international network of Rotarians who share your vision. Prospective Rotarian Action Groups must secure at least 25 prospective members representing at least five countries and three Rotary zones and submit a detailed proposal to RI. If you are interested in organizing a Rotarian Action Group, please contact RI staff  for guidance.

An upcoming webinar will show how clubs and districts can collaborate with Rotarian Action Groups (RAGs) to increase the scope and sustainability of their service projects.
