The Rotary Youth Leadership Award (RYLA) Programme is an international Rotary Project. Originating in 1959 in Queensland, Australia, RYLA was created as a festival highlighting local youth organized in honour of a royal visit. Through Rotarians’ constant belief in the potential of youth, RYLA has since become an opportunity to help the next generation of leaders define themselves and expand their skills. Officially adopted by Rotary International (RI) in 1971, this exciting program engages Rotary Clubs and Districts around the world.
RYLA in District 9705 is a challenging seven day residential program held each January for young people aged 18 to 25. RYLA offers a unique opportunity for motivated individuals to access some influential and inspirational speakers and trainers. With presentations, workshops and exercises, attendees will be introduced to concepts of effective leadership |
