ROTARY PEACE COMMUNITIES - ARGENTINA |
#1.
Tigre,
Buenos Aires, was the first city in Argentina to be inducted
into the world-wide group of Rotary Peace Cities on 24 March
2001 under the guidance of RC Tigre, D4820 and was
initiated by Patricia Monica Sontag Baigros.
The declaration of peace by the Government bodies of Tigre, created a rapid increase in
official Rotary Peace Cities in Argentina - |
#2.
San Juan Province & San Juan City,
were the first of 11 cities and districts to make their public
Declaration of Peace, all on 6 April 2001, also becoming the
first province (or state) to declare peace. The RC San Juan of
D4860 sponsored this induction which was, along with all other
cities mentioned below, initiated by
Patricia Monica Santos Baigros & Graciela Moya de Segovia.
Patricia and Graciela had spent many months discussing and
negotiating with the relevant government authorities and Rotary
Clubs in the various cities. It was their joint desire to
coordinate all 10 cities in Argentina to make their public
declarations simultaneously. Can you imagine the pleasure of
realising that their goal had been met?
These are the
Cities which were organised by these two extremely hard working
Rotarians. |
