Join Leaders  |  Exchange ideas  |  Take Action

togetherTalks is a fortnightly series of online conversation events with thought leaders across the globe from the worlds of business, humanitarian interest and more.

Why?

Rotary's vision is:

Together we see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change: across the globe, in our communities and in ourselves.”

To that end we invite you to invite others to join us in these conversations and learn of ways that we can collectively enhance our ability to make a difference and be #bettertogether.

The format of togetherTalks is perfect to tune in at home, on the go or at an online club meeting where members can invite guests to engage in discussion with them on these thought-provoking topics. Each event ends with three key takeaways to inspire action!

What?

togetherTalks Series 1 was launched back in May with Jennifer Jones, who will be Rotary International President 2022-23, and ended with a feature on Captain Sir Tom Moore with his daughter Hannah. In total the 14 events attracted tens of thousands of viewers, both live and on demand.

Series 2 ran from October to December, and all events are available to below to catch up on demand.

Each 40 minute session includes:

• In-depth and sharp conversation around important topics
• Q&As / Live chat
• 3 key takeaways for action
