What is an MDIO?
Rotaract multidistrict information
organizations (MDIO) are regional
groups of Rotary districts that form
for the purpose of disseminating
information and facilitating
communication among Rotaract clubs
in the participating districts. MDIOs
can also provide leadership training to
Rotaract clubs and future district
Rotaract leaders and organize
multidistrict service projects. Each
MDIO is comprised of two or more
Rotary districts.
26 actives MDIOs today (the image below was not updated)
