ICC Leadership

Uniting Rotarians Across Borders

What are Intercountry Committees ?

The sections within a pair maintain close communication, exchange information about Rotary events, and share regional publications. They work together and leverage their bilateral network of Rotarians to help clubs implement humanitarian projects.

Bilateral Networks: ICC sections operate autonomously, with their own leadership structures, coordinating activities within their respective countries.

Global Guidance: At the global level, the ICC Executive Committee provides guidance and support to the network of ICCs, promoting development of new committees.

Best Practices: The Executive Committee is tasked with collecting and sharing best practices, and maintaining a directory of active committees worldwide.

ICC Leadership

Our mission — ICC Leadership operates on two levels: individual ICC sections function autonomously, with their own leadership structures, and are responsible for coordinating activities within their respective countries.
