Rotary International President Jennifer Jones (who is also our first female president) announced the 2022-23 theme Imagine Rotary. “Imagine, a world that deserves our best, where we get up each day knowing that we can make a difference.”

The theme is a special one: the theme graphic was designed by an Australian Indigenous artist to link with the Melbourne Convention in 2023.

Some of the symbolism includes:

• Circle connections to one another
• Dots around it - our people
• There are 7 Dots for Rotary's 7 areas of focus
• Circle + dots around it - a navigation star, our guiding light
• Green solid line - digging stick (used when doing hard work); for us it's People of Action, represents the tools for getting things done
• The colours purple, green & white - celebrate diversity, equity and inclusion Freedom to express ourselves differently but still with a special connection Purple is also the colour of Rotary's Polio campaign
• Green represents the Environment
• White stands for peace; it also represents Empowerment and Newness and also the colours were utilised for the women's movement, highlighting the opportunity to grow our female membership.
