The Roman Woman Ambassador award was given to women who, through their commitment and authentic testimony, have contributed to making Rome a more vibrant, supportive, and aware city . Stories of resilience, determination, and success after much hard work. An example of how female strength can positively impact the entire community.
Among the awardees was Adriana Muscas, Governor of District 2080, which includes Rome, Lazio, and Sardinia.
"I am truly honored," said Adriana Muscas during the ceremony. "Rome has welcomed me and chosen me. Rotary used to be all men, but today many women hold important positions.
