Sri Lanka will host the SEARIC Summit 2026 from September 11 to 13 at Pegasus Reef Hotel, marking the first time the country will host the flagship regional gathering of the South East Asia Rotaract Information Centre (SEARIC).
Hosted by Rotaract in Rotary International District 3220 (RID 3220) – Sri Lanka and Maldives, the three-day summit is expected to attract more than 500 delegates from six countries, providing a regional platform for leadership development, knowledge exchange, cultural understanding and collaboration among young leaders.
SEARIC serves as a regional platform connecting Rotaract districts across South East Asia, facilitating collaboration, information exchange, cultural understanding and joint initiatives among Rotaractors.
The summit, themed “The Role of Technology in the Future of Careers and Services,” will focus on the changing relationship between technology, careers, leadership and community service.
As emerging technologies continue to transform industries and workplaces, the summit will provide young leaders with an opportunity to explore how technology can help prepare for the future of work while strengthening community service.
Delegates will participate in leadership and professional development sessions, discussions, cultural experiences, networking opportunities and community-focused programmes throughout the three-day event.
The summit is expected to serve as a significant regional platform for youth leadership, technology, professional development and service.
For Rotaract in Sri Lanka, the event will also provide an opportunity to strengthen ties with young leaders across South East Asia and showcase Sri Lanka as a destination for regional youth collaboration.
