This week's meeting material
- The club's project in Cambodia and Vietnam - 9 - 24 September 2016 - The Club team in Cambodia has returned after two weeks in Cambodia and Vietnam exploring club projects and preparing for the schoolies visit late in 2017. For more information see the club's Facebook page.
- Literacy - Dolly and Rotary bringing the gift of literacy to kids across Australia
- The risky politics of progress - Jonathan Tepperman . Global problems such as terrorism, inequality and political dysfunction aren't easy to solve, but that doesn't mean we should stop trying. In fact, suggests journalist Jonathan Tepperman, we might even want to think riskier. He travelled the world to ask global leaders how they're tackling hard problems -- and unearthed surprisingly hopeful stories that he's distilled into three tools for problem-solving
