New Trends in Volunteering - How Can You Adapt Your Programme
New Trends in Volunteering - How Can You Adapt Your Programme
Episodic volunteering, mobile volunteers, virtual volunteers, cyber volunteers - are these all just buzzwords or are they new ways in which we engage volunteers?
55% of people surveyed recently wish to engage in episodic-based volunteering, so what can we as organisations do to engage with these volunteers?
This online training event will examine the global volunteering trends and see how they apply to volunteering in Ireland. We will also discuss how you can adapt these trends to your own volunteers within your organisation.
This online workshop will also give you an opportunity to share thoughts and ideas with other participants, as well as give you an opportunity to ask any questions.
