About Us

Welcome to the Rotary Club of Bonn International – where the world comes together in the heart of Bonn!

We are the only Rotary Club in the city dedicated to the international community, offering a welcoming home for globally minded individuals and expatriates. If you’re a foreign Rotarian visiting Bonn, our doors are open to you! With a vibrant mix of diverse experiences and cultures, we bring people together in a spirit of camaraderie and shared purpose, connecting you locally while opening doors to the prestigious global Rotarian network.

 

Our club is a thriving community of 48 members, including business leaders, entrepreneurs, educators, climate leaders, artists, musicians, doctors, lawyers, policy makers, researchers, journalists and more. We proudly represent 16 different nationalities, from Germany, Kenya, India, and Barbados to Egypt, Uganda, Iraq, and beyond. This rich cultural diversity is at the heart of who we are, making our club an exciting and dynamic place to belong.

 

With an average age of 52, we’re one of the younger, more energetic Rotary Clubs in District 1810. But what truly sets us apart is our passion for making a difference. Whether it’s fighting climate change, working towards a polio-free world, or promoting peace, our members are committed to tackling the most pressing challenges of today—both locally and globally.

 

As an open, non-political, and non-sectarian organization, we welcome all people with international experience, no matter their race, religion, gender, or political views. Our meetings, held in English, are inclusive, engaging, and packed with opportunities to learn, grow, and connect with like-minded individuals.

 

Join us every Monday at 7:00 PM at the Gustav-Stresemann-Institut in Bonn for a 7:30 PM start. Rotarians from near and far, along with guests recommended by Rotarians, are warmly invited to attend. And it doesn’t stop there! We also host frequent social events and outings, taking full advantage of all that Bonn and the surrounding areas have to offer.

 

The Rotary Club of Bonn International is a place where exciting ideas meet meaningful action. Our meeting topics span health, youth exchange, environmental initiatives, conflict resolution, culture, and much more—always with a global perspective.

 

We can’t wait to welcome you and share in the energy and enthusiasm that defines our club! Together, we’re making a lasting impact on communities around the world.

What is the UN doing in Bonn? This question was at the centre of a recent visit to the UN Campus.
by Dr. Monika Hörig   What is the UN doing in Bonn? This question was at the centre of a recent visit to the UN Campus, where 15 members of the RCBI gathered in Bonn's International Quarter. Thanks to our member Luca Brusa, RCBI was able to provide this glimpse behind the scenes. And because there was so much interest, there will be a second visit in December. The centrepiece of the UN Campus is the so-called ‘Lange Eugen’, a high-rise building that originally served as an office building for the members of the German Bundestag, which was based in Bonn until 1999. Almost all of the 27 UNorganisations currently based in Bonn ...
