President Francesco Arezzo's Message

The Rotary International presidential message for 2025-26 is "Unite for Good". This message, announced by President-elect Mário César Martins de Camargo, emphasizes the power of human connection to drive positive change through collaboration and service. It replaces the traditional annual "presidential theme" with a more consistent "presidential message" aligned with the Rotary Action Plan. 
 

Here's a breakdown:


"Unite for Good":
This message encourages Rotary members to be a force for unity in a world often divided by various factors. 


Focus on Human Connection:
The message highlights the importance of welcoming new members, collaborating on service projects, and expanding Rotary's global impact. 


Consistent Branding:
The change to a "presidential message" aims to streamline communication and create a unified voice for Rotary, avoiding confusion caused by annual theme changes. 


Action-Oriented:
The message reinforces Rotary's identity as #PeopleOfAction, emphasizing that members don't just wait for change, but actively create it.
