What our club will do for Rotary Community Pride Campaign
Step	What we will do	Who could lead it
1	Map the places, people and achievements the community wants represented and the gaps it wants acknowledged.	Community Curator
2	Agree selection principles and a unifying theme without ranking neighbourhoods or groups.	Co-Design Panel
3	Produce local profiles and visuals with attribution, accessible descriptions and rights records.	Creative Lead
4	Launch through trusted community venues and invite one stewardship or participation action.	Activation Lead
5	Capture additions and corrections, then transfer approved material to a maintained local archive.	Archive Steward

3. Checks before we start

Things our club needs to check
Question	What it means for us	Who will check	Done?
Do not publish cultural material, Traditional Knowledge or identifiable community stories without the authority of the relevant custodians.
Avoid implying a council, civic leader or community group endorses Rotary because it participates or provides a venue.
HIGH - cultural rights, contested history and implied endorsement require careful co-design and permissions.
