ROTARY INTERNATIONAL NEWS

Rotary Interna!onal has honored Theresa May, Prime Minis-

ter of the United Kingdom, with the Polio Eradica!on Champi-

on Award for her leadership and poli!cal support toward end-

ing polio.

Rotary Interna!onal President Barry Rassin presented the

pres!gious award to Alistair Burt, the UK Minister of State for

Interna!onal Development and Minister of State for the Mid-

dle East, at a roundtable discussion on Polio Eradica!on on 27

November in London, England.

Rassin told Burt, who accepted the award on May’s behalf,

that the UK has repeatedly demonstrated an unwavering com-

mitment toward a polio-free world.

“Britain’s leadership in making mul!-year commitments in

support of global Polio Eradica!on has been an example for

other countries to follow,” Rassin said. He added that flexible

funding from the UK has given the Global Polio Eradica!on

Ini!a!ve more resources to respond quickly to “dynamic

needs.”

Under May’s leadership in 2017, the UK pledged about $130

million to the GPEI for 2017-19, bringing the country’s cumu-

la!ve support for Polio Eradica!on to $1.6 billion — second

only to the United States. May has also been a strong advo-

cate for other countries in the G-20 and G-7 to maintain their

financial and poli!cal support for a polio-free world, Rassin

said.
