Improving Women's Lives In The Congo. Dr Marthe Kondemo
 
 
Dr Marthe Kondemo is visiting Australia from the Democratic Republic of Congo to learn about innovative women's health and livelihood initiatives to see what may be replicable in the DRC. While here she will meet a wide range of organisations dealing with such issues as domestic violence prevention, conflict resolution, peacebuilding, disability services and youth engagement. Despite vast natural resources the DRC has suffered from political instability, a lack of infrastructure, corruption and centuries of commercial extraction and exploitation. Her visit is facilitated by Lucy Hobgood-Brown from the Rotary E-Club of Greater Sydney.
 
 
Feeding The Homeless At The Early Bird Cafe - Marilyn Smith
 
 
The Rotary Club of Sydney Cove actively supports the Early Bird Cafe located opposite State Parliament House. Over 20,000 breakfasts are served each year along with clothes, toiletries and books. As the homeless crisis gets worse it is clear that this service totally managed by volunteers is needed more than ever. Marilyn Smith explains. www.earlybirdcafe.org.au

Opening Their Minds to Science

Opening Their Minds to Science - Jade Dunn

Jade Dunn a student at Barker College Sydney attended the National Youth Science Forum held in Brisbane. Held over nine days the NYSF immerses students in all aspects of STEM. Meetings are held with science researchers, business and community leaders during an intensive program designed to sharpen the students' focus on further study and careers in science.

PS If your club is running a project which you think would interest the wider general public please contact me to discuss a possible interview. A great way for example to add profile for recipients of vocational awards or students undertaking RYPEN, RYE, RYLA etc.
