District, zone and other conferences, as well as festivals are a great opportunity to inform members of the Rotary family and the community about the welcoming and inclusive environment created in Rotary.
When deciding what your stall will look like you should first consider the audience. If the stall is at a Rotary conference, with members from the Rotary family in attendance, consider including:
- Printed resources from the Rotary DEI page including the DEI code of conduct and links to learning resources
- Our Rotary’s commitment statement poster and quote from PRIP Holger printed on a corflute sign
- Resources to support allyship like the Being an LGBT+ Ally poster and Active bystander poster
- Printed pronoun stickers for delegates to place on their name tags
- Printed copies of the LGBT+ inclusion club assessment tool for delegates to take away and complete with their club
- Resources to market the Fellowship:
- QR Code link to the Fellowship’s website printed on a corflute sign
- Purpose of the Fellowship poster printed on a corflute sign
- Printed Fellowship brochures and flyers
Director Monica Mulholland (she/her) as written this wonderful reflectionfrom her district conference stall.
If the stall is at a public event like a festival many of the above resources won’t be suitable because they are aimed at an internal audience. In this case you should draw on many of the resources in the brand centre on myRotary along with some of the more generic resources that promote Rotary as an inclusive place, including:
- Our Rotary’s commitment statement poster and quote from PRIP Holger printed on a corflute sign
- Resources to support allyship like the Being an LGBT+ Ally poster and Active bystander poster
- A poster where attendees can register their interest to be connected to a welcoming club, like this one
- Foundation resources to show the good work of Rotary, like these pull-up banners; people want examples of the good work we do!
If there’s something you need and it’s not here, please get in contact and we can see if we can make it!
