However, from next year May has been designated YOUTH SERVICES MONTH. Previously the youth were recognised during September when it was known as NEW GENERATIONS MONTH. Let’s fast forward to next year then and discuss Youth Services. This embraces Rotaract [18 to 30 year olds] Interact [12 to 18 year olds] Youth Exchange and Rotary Youth Leadership Awards [RYLA] and EarlyAct which has still to obtain official Rotary International recognition. Our club is involved in Youth Exchange, EarlyAct and Interact. Our Youth Exchange activities are aimed at the Short Term Exchange Programme [STEP] and these family to family exchanges are with countries in Europe. We have sponsored 2 EarlyAct clubs, one at Our Lady of Fatima and the other at Ekuthuleni Primary School and both are doing well. The Interact Club of Ekuthuleni was chartered on 2 nd March 2015 and the official charter ceremony took place on 24 th April 2015. This is a community based Interact club and draws its members, aged 12 to 18 from Ekuthuleni Primary School and the adjacent JG Zuma High School. These are all good news activities amidst all the man-made disasters taking place throughout most of the world, but especially in Africa at this time in history. Added to that, are the disasters like earthquakes, floods and droughts that contribute to the misery of mankind. Desperate people will go to extremes to improve their lives like the people fleeing Africa for a better life in Europe and taking to the sea in overcrowded inflatable crafts, mostly unseaworthy, only to drown at sea. Then there are those who have entered South Africa, seeking a better future, only to be the victims of xenophobic attacks. Will the Youth of today be able to make a difference? You be the judge!

On arrival in Cape Town, I contacted Retha Gardiner, President of the Rotary Club of
Gordon's Bay. She invited us to the meeting on the day Jacqui arrived. We were both
knackered (I had not slept the night before). I gave a very brief introduction of myself
and the ride - but it was not a good one at all.
We have been invited back for the meeting on 28th.
The accommodation Retha has arranged for us is way above expectations and it is for
the full period that Jacqui is here and until I leave - around the 10th May.
Jayne Martin did a LOT of ground work in getting us accommodation as well.
However, I had committed to Retha, before I had a confirmed response from Jayne.
Jayne has gone to Namibia for a few days and offered us the use of her beautiful
home in Constantia. We took this up for two days last week as it cut down on travel to
places in Cape Town that we needed to go to.
I have managed to get things moving on renewing my Swiss passport. That might take
a couple of weeks, but knowing the Swiss and their efficiency that might be sooner.
In the meantime I will possibly return to Betty's Bay and sit out the period - some work
to be done on internet.
Good having Jacqui here and experiencing the domesticity of face to face talk and
strong discussion!
Please make every effort to attend the
GoToMeeting on 5th May 2015 which is
the DG’s Official Visit to our club.
The District Governor
The Official Visit
The governor’s official visit is the personal visit of the governor to each Rotary
club in the district, individually or in groups, for the purpose of:
• Focusing attention on important Rotary issues
• Providing special attention to weak or struggling clubs
• Motivating Rotarians to participate in service activities
• Ensuring that the constitution and bylaws of the clubs comply with the
constitutional documents
• Personally recognizing the outstanding contributions of Rotarians in the district
The governor or assistant governor should review the progress of the club
toward its goals during the official visit. To maximize the impact of the
governor’s presence, visits should coincide with events such as charter nights,
induction ceremonies, new member orientation programs, citation or award
presentations, special programmes, Rotary Foundation events, or intercity
meetings. Multi-club or intercity meetings should emphasize strong attendance
from all participating clubs, not just the host club. Governors should also use this
time to hear from clubs about how the district could better support them.

PRESIDENT IRENE’S PAGE
Dear Fellow Rotarians In my response to TOPIC of the Week of
13 April 2015 I said that I would have to
think about how our EXOTICS* AND
INDIGENOUS** members could contribute
more to our Club. I think I may have
found the answer. But first…………………... *EXOTICS
**INDIGENOUS
These are terms that are given to members
who do not reside in Durban. Those from
South Africa were deemed to be
INDIGENOUS [just like plants] and those that
stayed overseas or beyond our borders in
Africa were deemed to be EXOTICS – once
again like in the plant world BUT none were
deemed to be ALIEN.
We now have 47 members and it is
impossible for the President and/or the
Secretary to communicate individually
with each of them on a regular basis. A
number of members regularly comment
on TOPIC of the Week and/or attend the
fortnightly GoToMeeting but from many
members there is “computer and e-mail
silence”. I ask “Why”? Are they too shy to
leave an opinion or tell us about projects
that they are involved in, or do they
simply not feel part of our E-Club family
because of distance? There are all kinds
of questions that go through my mind in
looking for a solution. Here is a suggestion
that may solve the problem:
You have asked how you can
contribute/be more involved. If you print
the membership list and circle those
names you have not come across on
either TOPIC of the Week or GTM you
could communicate with one or more of
them, individually by e-mail, depending
on how much time you have. (This idea
could be an extension of the
“CONNEXION” Groups).
Follow up on any responses and
encourage the sharing of project news.
We don’t want you to use the so-called
social media for this exercise; that would
completely defeat the object of the
exercise.
Regular contact with members and
harmonious member interaction and
fellowship is the lifeline of any E-Club.
There is an article entitled “Fellowship the
Rotary E-Club Way” in the NEWS Section
on our website, posted in May 2010. It is
worth reading it again to refresh your
memory. As an E-Club we use
technology, but this is purely an enabler,
nothing more.
Members living far away from the Durban
hub might feel they have nothing to
contribute as all our projects they read
about in OUTA SPACE are in South Africa.
This is a misconception as there is nothing
wrong in assisting a Rotary Club in your
home turf with a project and reporting
back to your home club. We are all
members of the big family of Rotary with
the same goals and intentions.
I hope you embrace my suggestion and
at the same time have FUN.
LET’S LET’S LET’S LET’S ALL ALL ALL ALL HAVE FUNHAVE FUNHAVE FUNHAVE FUN!!!!

Global vaccination targets ‘off-track’ warns WHO News release 22 APRIL 2015 | GENEVA Progress towards global vaccination targets for 2015 is far off-track with 1 in 5 children still missing out on routine life-saving immunizations that could avert 1.5 million deaths each year
from preventable diseases. In the lead-up to World Immunization Week 2015 (24–30 April), WHO is calling for renewed efforts to get progress back on course. In 2013 nearly 22 million infants missed out on the required three doses of diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis-containing vaccines (DTP3), many of them living in the world’s poorest countries. WHO is calling for an end to the unnecessary disability and death caused by failure to vaccinate.
“World Immunization Week creates a focused global platform to reinvigorate our collective efforts to ensure vaccination for every child, whoever they are and wherever they live,” said Dr Flavia Bustreo, WHO Assistant Director-General, Family, Women's and Children's Health. “It is critical that the global community now makes a collective and cohesive effort to put progress towards our 6 targets back on track.”
In 2012, all 194 WHO Member States at the World Health Assembly endorsed the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP), a commitment to ensure that no one misses out on vital immunization. However, a recent independent assessment report on GVAP progress rings an alarm bell, warning that vaccines are not being delivered equitably or reliably and that only 1 of the 6 key vaccination targets for 2015 is currently on track – the introduction of under-utilized vaccines.
Many countries worldwide have experienced large measles outbreaks in the past year, threatening efforts to achieve the GVAP target of eliminating measles in 3 WHO Regions by end-2015. Actions to get back on track A global collaborative drive for immunization, begun in the mid-1970s — with the establishment of the Expanded Programme on Immunization in all countries — achieved
dramatic results, raising vaccination levels from as low as 5% to more than 80% in many countries by 2013. WHO estimates that today immunizations prevent between 2 and 3 million deaths annually and protect many more people from illness and disability. Although progress has stalled in recent years, this early success demonstrates the potential of vaccines, which are increasingly being extended from children to adolescents and adults, providing protection against diseases such as influenza, meningitis and cervical and liver
cancers. The GVAP recommends three key steps for closing the immunization gap:
• integrating immunization with other health services, such as postnatal care for mothers and babies;
• strengthening health systems so that vaccines continue to be given even in times of crisis; and
• ensuring that everyone can access vaccines and afford to pay for them. Dr Jean-Marie Okwo-Belé, Director of Immunization, Vaccines and Biologicals at WHO, says the Organization will work to increase its support to all countries that are lagging behind in meeting immunization targets. In May this year, WHO will bring together high-level representatives of 34 countries with routine vaccination (three doses of DTP3) coverage of
less than 80% to discuss the challenges faced by countries and to explore solutions to overcome them. Although many countries are already vaccinating four out of five children with DTP3, a full one-third of countries are still struggling to reach the ‘fifth child’, meaning millions of children remain at risk of illness, disability or death because they are not getting the immunizations they need.

A Rotary Area of Focus: Disease prevention and treatment
OUTA SPACEOUTA SPACEOUTA SPACEOUTA SPACE Page 8
CONT FROM PAGE 7 “There is no one centralized approach that can ensure vaccines are delivered and
administered to each child. Vaccination plans on the ground need to be adapted not just to
countries, but to districts and communities,” said Dr Okwo-Belé. “What is required is a truly
concerted effort and much stronger accountability so that each one of the key players
involved fulfils its mandate and helps close the immunization gap.”
Critical operational needs to ensure wider vaccination and delivery on the ground include:
• finding ways to simplify vaccination procedures in the field; • improving vaccination delivery to reach every last child, especially those living in
remote and inaccessible areas; • ensuring vaccine affordability and strengthening vaccine supply chains;
• training more health workers, skilled managers and providing supportive supervision; • improving the quality of data collected by countries and using this to improve
immunization operations; • overcoming challenges posed by conflict, natural disasters and other crises; • increasing awareness and demand for immunization by communities;
• greater accountability linked to micro-planning of vaccination operations and clear lines of responsibility.
Earlier this year, donor countries and institutions pledged to meet the funding needs of Gavi,
the Vaccine Alliance that brings together public and private sectors to create equal access
to new and underused vaccines for children living in the world’s poorest countries.
The Global Vaccine Action Plan envisions a world where everyone lives life free from vaccine
preventable diseases by 2020. It set 6 targets for 2015:
Immunization against diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough (DTP3)
Target: 90% immunization coverage against diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough by
2015.
Gap: 65 countries
Introduction of under-utilized vaccines
Target: At least 90 low or middle income countries to have introduced one or more under-
utilized vaccines by 2015.
ON TRACK
Polio eradication
Target: No new cases after 2014
Gap: 3 countries remain polio endemic
Maternal and neonatal tetanus: Global elimination by end-2015
Target: Eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus
Gap: 24 countries
Measles elimination
Target: Eliminate from three WHO regions by end-2015
Gap: 16% of all children are not being immunized against measles
Rubella elimination
Target: Eliminate rubella from two WHO regions by end-2015
Gap: Half of all children do not receive the rubella vaccine
Do we as Rotarians need to be concerned about these ‘Gaps’?
Do we as parents need to be concerned about these ‘Gaps’?
Do we as concerned citizens need to be concerned about these ‘Gaps’?
And if so, what should we be doing?

Rotarian Action Group updates
Three new groups will support club and district projects Rotarian Action Groups — autonomous, Rotarian-run groups composed of members passionate about a particular field — help clubs and districts plan and implement high-impact projects. Membership is open to Rotarians, their family members, and all Rotary program participants and alumni. Learn about the three newest groups:
• The Disaster Network of Assistance Rotarian Action Group mentors clubs and districts in disaster preparedness, and plans to develop a communication and recovery network to enhance Rotary’s response to disasters.
• The Rotarian Action Group for Endangered Species raises awareness about preserving and protecting endangered species and the communities that depend on them. The group assists Rotary and Rotaract clubs with service initiatives related to protecting these vulnerable populations.
• The Rotarian Action Group Healthy Pregnancies / Healthy Children focuses on reducing maternal and child mortality by working with clubs and districts to address common health risks for parents and babies.
Rotarians Rob Lindegger and Alan Pembroke bumped into each other at the South African Nippers Lifesavings
Championships in Gordon’s Bay 2 weeks ago. The last time they
saw each other was around 1967'ish! Alan is a member and Past
President of our sponsor club Durban Bay. Small world indeed!
BEARDS OF A FEATHER FLOCK TOGETHER
Rotarians should always be on the lookout for a Rotarian Action Group that suits
their passions. Here are 3 new RAG’s that may be of some interest.

Spirit of Earth Day: Tree planting project stems from surviving a tsunami Rotary member Gowri Rajan waters a newly planted tree last December in the
Kurunegala district of Sri Lanka. Photo Credit: Photo courtesy of Gowri Raja
• As a child, Gowri
Rajan was scared of trees
because of the reptiles and
insects lurking in their
roots, branches, and
leaves. "I wouldn't go
near trees," says Rajan.
"It's ironic that, later in
life, a tree would be the
reason I'm still alive." On the morning of 26 December 2004, a tsunami slammed into Rajan's vacation house on
the Indian Ocean in Sri Lanka, where her family and a few friends were staying for the
holidays. The water violently crashed through the house, destroying everything inside. "I said
my last prayers. I thought this was the end," she recalls.
When the water receded, it swept Rajan with it. But she saved herself by grabbing onto one
of the few trees that hadn't been uprooted.
"For 20 minutes I held on with all my strength. I could feel the ocean pulling my body in," says
Rajan, who lost three of her friends that day.
After the wave receded, she started to swim back to the house through the dark water, to
rejoin her family and friends. A second wave came crashing in. A friend was able to reach
Rajan and help her climb to the top of another tree. "I was saved by two trees," she says. "It's
a miracle I'm still alive."
Now, Rajan is looking for a million people to share their tree stories to raise awareness and
money to restore the island nation's trees.
Rajan is a Rotary member and leader in her region, which started the One Million Tree Stories
project in December, 10 years after the tsunami. One of the region's Rotary clubs, the Rotary
Club of Ibbagamuwa, is playing a prominent role because it had already been working on
reforestation. The Rotary members are partnering with hundreds of local farmers, a bank,
and government agencies. The Sri Lankan army will help plant the first trees. The goal is to
plant 1 million trees this year along the banks of protected reservoirs in the Kurunegala
district, in the country's North Western Province, and another 4 million trees over the next five
years.
Rotary members and the public can sponsor a tree for 100 Sri Lankan rupees (about $.75
cents) and are encouraged to tell their own tree stories on the project's Facebook page.
"Research shows every human being is emotionally connected to a tree in some way or
another," says Rajan. "We want to hear these stories. It will help create a personal connection
to the tree you sponsor."
Rajan says 40 cents of each dollar donated to the project will go to The Rotary Foundation,
while the remaining 60 cents will be used to buy trees and care for them during their first two
years. Every tree will be tagged and entered into a computer system that will enable
sponsors to monitor its growth. CONT ON PAGE 11

Environmental protection According to the Sri Lankan government, the nation's forest coverage has declined from 53
percent to 29 percent over the last two decades.
Don Nihal Wanigasekara, president of the Ibbagamuwa Rotary club and the originator of its
tree-planting project, says widespread deforestation is contributing to "the destruction of our
planet."
"Although the government has imposed laws to control deforestation, more effort must be
made to help our country's natural habitat," says Wanigasekara, a mechanical and mining
engineer. "Planting one tree has an enormous benefit to the environment," he adds.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, a single tree can absorb a ton of harmful greenhouse gases over its lifetime,
produce enough oxygen for four people every day, cool the air as well as 10 room-size air
conditioners operating 20 hours a day, and provide an estimated $273 of environmental
benefits in every year of its life. Trees also control storm water runoff and reduce the risks of
both flooding and drought.
Wanigasekara estimates that Sri Lanka needs a minimum of 20 million new trees over the next
10 years to be able to counter the effects of the carbon dioxide and other gases released
into the atmosphere through the burning of fossil fuels.
"Our club unanimously accepted to take on this project because we know how crucial it is to
make the environment safer for future generations," says Wanigasekara. "We all have a
personal responsibility to keep this planet green. I hope a million trees is just the beginning."
Due to the irrigation system, funded by the $1,000 given to FDSA by Professor Juan Carlos Balda,
there has been significant growth of all the original trees. According to Bettie, the width of the trunk
is more significant than the height of the trees. The trees are irrigated by ‘grey’ water at no cost.
I’d like to hear from our members whether they have a ‘story’ to tell about
something that happened in their lives that has steered them towards a
particular ‘cause’. Ed

RETENTION – PDG Ant Connolly, Editor, The Link - Rotary Club of Durban North Rotary and its member clubs have two market segments from which to sustain
membership – existing members and potential members. Similarities exist, but each
segment must be treated differently. Two issues of prime importance in doing so are
recognizing that:
1. Rotary membership is a niche market; it is not for everyone.
2. Both segments are motivated by personal desires.
For marketing purposes, each primary segment must be separated into four
secondary segments - Behavioural, Demographic, Psychographic, and Geographic.
To improve retention rates, it is vital that Rotary and its member clubs understand
that existing Rotarians, particularly those who have been members for three or more
years, are loyal Rotarians.
Loyalty is a behavioural characteristic and is gained, not because of what Rotary or
clubs do, but because of the satisfaction Rotarians receive by being members of
local clubs. Data indicates that Rotary and its member clubs have between one
and three years for new Rotarians to evolve into loyal Rotarians. Issues like the time
Rotary takes and how being a Rotarian affects their family, business, and/or personal
activities are important.
The recognition, prestige, honours, and other benefits accorded them, particularly in
their local settings, helps them justify to themselves and others the reasons for their
attitudes, interests, and lifestyles. This is perhaps the most difficult of all segments for
Rotary to address. Rotarians (and clubs) participate in activities and attributes
according to their interests and attitudes. Conflicts frequently arise within clubs
because members have different interests, attitudes, traits, and understandings
Geographic segmentation addresses land masses and transportation distances.
Geographic issues are of minimal importance in retaining Rotarians, but are quite
important in creating new Rotarians.
The characteristics of each secondary segment continually interact to some degree
in all Rotarians.
Rotary and its member clubs should tailor their attributes and activities to deliver
value satisfactory to all Rotarians regardless of their years in Rotary. And the only
accurate measure of whether or not clubs are effective at doing so is their ability to
retain and create loyal members!
Membership growth and retention! This is always an interesting area of
discussion especially when the old hum drum discussion is replaced by some
concise and refreshing points. Although this is written from a ‘Terra’ club
perspective it applies equally to an E-Club with the exception of some of the Geographic aspects. Certainly food for thought! Thanks Ant.
