Rotary Club
Ms Klischan, what does your involvement in Rotary mean to you?
‘I have been a happy Rotarian since 2012, initially in the Rotary Club of Ibiza, where I was president for two years during the coronavirus pandemic. And since spring 2024 in the newly founded Rotary e-Club Ibiza International, of which I am charter president.
First and foremost, Rotary gives me and all members the opportunity to give something back to this island.
We live a life in paradise here. We should not forget those who have not been so lucky in life. Because even here in Ibiza, people are fighting for a better life every day.
But also at the international level, Rotary offers me an incredible number of creative opportunities.
I am also a founding member and secretary of the Rotary Action Group for Menstrual Health and Hygiene:
We want to improve the living conditions of girls and women worldwide, focussing on combating period poverty, on environmental protection and on healthy and sustainable hygiene products - but above all on keeping girls in school worldwide when they reach menstrual age. Girls simply cannot be denied an education simply because they start menstruating and have no access to sanitary products. This is a problem that has received far too little attention to date.
I am happy to be able to do something about it.’
