Rotary Club Global Pattaya Holding Informative Event in March About Action Group Against Slavery

Coming Soon: Rotary Club Global Pattaya event on March 11th at Pattaya Hilton Hotel

With this upcoming event, the Rotary Club of Global Pattaya is drawing attention to a Rotary activity that is unknown to many:

RAGAS – the “Rotarian Action Group Against Slavery”. This Rotary Division has a key focus, the elimination of human trafficking and slavery, which affects in excess of 45 million men, women and children globally. This is a massive aspiration, but not out of reach. With over 1700 members in 67 countries, RAGAS has dedicated individuals and groups who are building relationships with other NGOs working in this area, and creating global networks and partnerships to allow us to pool our passion, skills, resources and knowledge to tackle an issue as old as mankind himself.

Each region has a Co-ordinator, whose job is to help to connect Rotarians who share our passion for fighting slavery, to build partnerships with other organizations who can help in the fight, and set up groups of Rotarians across our regions, according to our talents and skills can be shared on specific projects.

Our guest speaker Jerry Nelson provides first-hand information. He joined Rotary in 2013, first as a charter member of Chiang Mai International Rotary Club (CMIRC), then a charter member of the Rotary Club to End Human Trafficking (RCEHT) where he is now an associate member. Currently, he is serving as the Thailand Coordinator for Rotary Action Group Against Slavery (RAGAS) and a Director on the RAGAS board.
