Reactivating the Spain-Colombia ICC

During this session, we will present our ICC Work Plan, discuss Joint Projects, the Colombia Project Fair, the Earthquake Contingency Plan in Colombia, and our preparations for the Rotary International Convention in Barcelona 2027.

It would be a true honor for all the Rotarians in our Spain–Colombia districts if you could join us live for a few minutes to share a brief greeting and words of encouragement. If your schedule does not allow you to attend live, we would be deeply grateful if you could send us a short pre-recorded video message (1–2 minutes) or a written message to share with our members during the event.

Please note that while the meeting will be conducted in Spanish, you are most welcome to share your greeting in English, and we will gladly provide translation for our attendees.

Thank you very much for your inspiring leadership and continuous support in building bridges of peace and international fellowship across Rotary.
