Peace and Conflict Resolution is one of Rotary’s key areas of Focus. In the World today Peace is essential in everyday living. In the absence of peace there is conflict, chaos, war, crime, pain, insecurity, suffering, etc.
The Royal Bahamas Police Force (RBPF) is the main Peacekeeping Organization in the Bahamas including the island of Eleuthera. The Rotary Club of Eleuthera (RCE) has partnered with RBPF over the years on many peacekeeping projects and initiatives.
RBPF has organized a Community Outreach Initiative that will assist the Youth, of Eleuthera during the academic school year 2024 – 2025. RCE and other local businesses were invited by RBPF to be a part of this initiative. On July 26, 2024, the Rotary Club of Eleuthera made a cash donation to the Royal Bahamas Police Force for this effort.
The focus of the Police is to give support to the Youth and deter them from becoming involved in crime and violence and assist with creating a peaceful Community. Several Youth Programs that currently exist under the leadership of the RBPF include the Police Cadet, Youth Marching Band, Baseball and Basketball Competitions.
