The Group Study Exchange (GSE) program of The Rotary Foundation is a unique cultural and vocational exchange opportunity for young business and professional men and women between the ages of 25 and 40 and in the early years of their professional lives. The program provides travel grants for teams to exchange visits between paired areas in different countries. For four to six weeks, team members experience the host country's institutions and ways of life, observe their own vocations as practiced abroad, develop personal and professional relationships, and exchange ideas.

This year our exchange programme with South Korea takes place during April/May 2007. Click on the attachments to view the profiles of both the inbound and outbound team.

Our outbound GSE team to South Korea under the leadership of Rtn Mike Neale of the Rotary Club of North Durban will leave our shores on 10th April 2007. Mike and his team will visit various places of interest, make presentations at a number of Rotary Clubs and also have the opportunity of experiencing some vocational training during their six week exchange.

Their pre-departure presentations will be on:
20 March - Dundee
22 March - Umhlatuzana (breakfast)
22 March - PMB Azalea (evening)
29 March - Durban North (Tetra Club Cocktail)

To Mike and his team, the Rotarians of D9270 wish you well and many days of laughter, enjoyment and enlightenment.

The team arrives back in Durban on 14th May...just a few days before our District Conference.
