About the Program
The Rotary Foundation’s Group Study Exchange (GSE) program is a unique cultural and vocational exchange opportunity for businesspeople and professionals between the ages of 25 and 40 who are in the early stages of their careers. The program provides travel grants for teams to exchange visits in paired areas of different countries. For four to six weeks, team members experience the host country's culture and institutions, observe how their vocations are practiced abroad, develop personal and professional relationships, and exchange ideas.

Team Member Responsibilities
As a team member, you’re expected to act in a mature and responsible manner during your travels and to stay with your team at all times unless accompanied by a host Rotarian. You must enter and leave the host district at the same time as your team, and you are responsible for any private, post-tour travel. Maintain an open mind, be positive, and have fun.
