- Are you between the ages of 25 and 40?
- Are you an outstanding local professional?
- Would you like to learn about your profession in Taiwan?
Rotarians in the Hudson valley would like to sponsor four outstanding local professionals to visit Taiwan from February 20th to March 22, 2010 as part of the Group Study Exchange program of the Rotary Foundation of Rotary International.
Group Study Exchange (GSE) is a unique vocational and cultural exchange for young professionals. Rotary Foundation provides travel grants for selected individuals to travel as a team to experience the host country’s culture, institutions, and observe how their vocations are practiced abroad. One goal of the GSE program is to promote international understanding and goodwill through person-to-person contact. While in the host country team members will stay in Rotarians’ homes, meet professional counterparts, partake in social and cultural exchanges, and serve as ambassadors of goodwill. Upon returning, each team member will be better prepared to work as a team both locally and globally, have increased leadership skills, increased self confidence and international friends for life.
People interested in applying should be between the ages of 25 and 40, employed full-time in a recognized business or profession, live in or be employed in Rotary District 7210 (Rockland, Orange, Putnam, Sullivan, Ulster, Dutchess, Greene, Columbia counties) and must not be a spouse, sibling, child or grandchild of a Rotarian.
