Source material
Current playbook index title and category plus an internally authored detailed-guide draft

Initiative-specific development wave

How this draft was developed

These sources support general principles for meaningful Rotary connections and privacy-minimal information handling; they are not an endorsement of the named Member Skills Map Wall initiative or this locally designed delivery model.

Primary references consulted

Candidate District material consulted

These records remain draft evidence and still need a human source decision.

  • Club Playbook - Theme 2
    Candidate record 53 What I Bring to Rotary Map provides the related concept of a visual member-strengths board. It is not a literal current-title match and does not supply consent, privacy, access, expiry, correction, professional-service or role-suitability controls.

Theme 2 source-assurance wave

What has been checked

  • 3 current primary pages used by this guide were reopened on 9 August 2026.
  • 3 attributed source claim(s) were mapped to their bounded use in this initiative.
  • Candidate District material remains separate and does not establish this result.
See each source's scope and limit
  • Engaging Younger Professionals: Make Connections
    Supports: The 32 attributed Theme 2 claims attached to this source, limited to the implementation elements and supporting documents named in each initiative-level claim mapping.
    Does not establish: That the initiative is endorsed by Rotary International or District 9510, that it is permitted by the club's governing documents, that members want it, that it suits the local club, or that it will achieve the intended outcome.
  • Chapter 3: APP 3 Collection of solicited personal information
    Supports: Data-minimisation, collection-purpose, proportionality and consent safeguards where the Privacy Act and APP 3 apply.
    Does not establish: Whether a particular Rotary club is an APP entity or whether a proposed renewal survey, diagnostic or member record is lawful in its actual circumstances.
  • Chapter 6: APP 6 Use or Disclosure of Personal Information
    Supports: The 21 attributed Theme 2 claims attached to this source, limited to the implementation elements and supporting documents named in each initiative-level claim mapping.
    Does not establish: Whether the Privacy Act or another duty applies to this club, whether consent is informed and valid, whether collection or publication is authorised, or whether the proposed safeguards are sufficient in the actual circumstances.

What still needs a person to confirm

  • Confirm the member, prospective-member, past-member and community needs, preferences and consent that the local design assumes.
  • Confirm which privacy, safeguarding, incorporated-association, charity, work health and safety, food, liquor, copyright, licensing, screening and other duties apply to the club and the activity.
  • Test accessibility, cultural safety, belonging, language and alternative participation routes with affected people and recognise First Nations cultural authority rather than inferring suitability from the guide.
  • Confirm every local fact, starting point, cost, role, current service contact, measure, stopping condition and platform capability before the club decides to proceed.
  • Confirm the authority and current scope of each primary source, resolve login-gated or moved-page references and keep any candidate District material attributed and unapproved until its source decision is made.

The source-verification release gate remains closed.

Checks still on hold

Still an internal draft: source interpretation, local suitability, accessibility, governance and editorial approval remain open checks.

What could this idea change?

It turns member energy into visible, organised action that is easier for other people to join.

It may suit: Members who want to build the skill, and the experienced members or facilitators helping them practice.

Could this work in our club?

  • Consider Member Skills Map Wall when willing members are underused, overused or unclear about where they can make a difference.
  • A club whose members want more ways to find shared interests, peer help and project conversations across existing friendship or committee groups.
  • Members able to choose a broad, non-sensitive description of what they offer or want to learn and to remain absent without disadvantage.
  • A named custodian who can manage consent, access, updates, removal and private alternatives.

Before you start

  • A written map purpose, audience, display location, consent model, contact route, retention period and prohibition on unrelated use or automated allocation.
  • Member-controlled categories such as skills offered, interests, learning goals and preferred contact, with examples that avoid status ranking and stereotypes.
  • An accessible private submission, preview, correction and removal process, including a no-display option and a way to participate without digital access.
  • A custodian authorised to moderate unsafe detail, manage physical and digital access, record expiry choices and respond promptly to removal requests.

At the end: At the 90-day review, compare the recorded measures with the starting point, resolve the listed governance holds and tell participants whether Member Skills Map Wall will change, continue or stop.
