Following the recent release of two new challenge papers and the London Rountable report on youth volunteering, we are hosting Part 2 of the 4-part Youth Volunteering and Social Change: Challenges and Opportunities webinar series. Join us for the upcoming session on Youth Volunteering and Youth Wellbeing: Exploring How Volunteering Can Make a Difference.

There has been increasing recognition of the importance of mental health and well-being in social and personal development, particularly among young people. In this webinar, a global panel will explore the role volunteering can play in enhancing well-being. Against the backdrop of current evidence on the links between youth volunteering and youth well-being, the panel will reflect on what needs to be in place to support volunteer involvement have a positive impact.

Youth Volunteering: Evidence into Action - Learning from Research
Wednesday, July 12, 2023 9:00-10:30 AM ET (GMT-4)
 
IAVE's interest in and focus on youth volunteering continues, and we are pleased to announce a new webinar from one of our GNVL member organizations, Volunteer Scotland.

Volunteer Scotland will share the key findings from its 'Young People in Scotland Survey 2022' (https://www.volunteerscotland.net/research-evaluation/research-publications/young-people-in-scotland-survey-2022).

In this webinar, our speakers will cover:
  • Factors underpinning the decline in both formal and informal youth volunteering between 2019 - 2022.
  • Demographic variations in impact across age, gender, deprivation, long-term health conditions, and faith groups.
  • The amazing contribution of Scotland's young people during times of crisis, for example, the 9.7 million hours they contributed in 2022.
There will also be a panel discussion to explore the global experience and implications for volunteering policy and practice. This 'Evidence into Action' online discussion should be of particular interest to leaders in youth volunteering, policymakers, volunteer practitioners, and those engaged in schools and youth work and who want to learn more about the contribution of volunteering.
