International Volunteer Day
International Volunteer Day on 5 December is a day to recognise and connect with the global volunteer movement of which we are all a part. An estimated 1 billion volunteers around the globe are freely giving their time to make a difference on the issues that affect them and their communities, often in the most difficult of circumstances.
This year’s theme, ‘volunteers build resilient communities’ acknowledges the vital role of volunteers in preventing, preparing and responding to shocks and stresses and building resilience.
We can support communities to be resilient by growing volunteers through development, training and recognition. Grow volunteers, build #ResilientCommunities.
