Event Preview
The 19th August Seminar had 10-15 participants, and the 20th August Seminar had 30 participants, giving us the opportunity to present a basic introduction to the club structure, the roles and responsibilities of club officers along with the details about Rotary, Rotaract, Interact and Interact District. Overall, the training seminar was facilitated by Itr. Safal Shrestha, the Zonal Interact Representative, Zone 8, and Itr. Sheetal Thakur, Zonal Planner. Along with the training seminars, various ice-breaking activities were also observed to make the sessions more fun and interactive. The interactive sessions lasted approximately two hours, but during that time, the participants gained knowledge about Rotary, Rotaract, Interact and the numerous skills necessary for a club to function effectively.
Event Review
In summary, we were able to successfully organize COTS for Zone 8’s active clubs and provide them with all of the necessary information and skills. As a result of this training seminar, the participants felt more connected to themselves, with each other as well as to the stakeholders around them, such as Rotary Rotaract, and Interact District.
