Volunteer for better development

The latest World’s Volunteerism Report shows that more than one billion people volunteer globally. Considering the hours they contribute, this is equivalent to over 109 million full-time workers.  

Volunteering can be both challenging and rewarding. You can gain useful knowledge leading to a greater understanding of the issues that affect other people. What is more, volunteering is a trigger for the economic and social sectors and creates a more cohesive society by building trust and reciprocity among citizens.    

We have asked some international volunteers to share their experiences. Are you curious to find out about their purposes and motivation? Watch the video below.
