Future Leadership – The Role of Youth Volunteers
PART 2 of the Virtual Global Forum Series: Volunteering Together to Enable Change and Create a Better World
September 9, 2020 at 9:00 AM ET (GMT-4)
Youth volunteering is seen as providing an important experience for young people to engage with their communities and the issues they care about while enhancing their own personal development. Learning to lead through volunteering often creates a pathway to employability and social entrepreneurial activities. Young volunteers are increasingly vocal in what they think about the world and how they want things to change. It is an important priority to channel the energy, passion and commitment of young volunteers into leadership roles to sustain and grow the volunteer effort. Young people themselves need to have a say in what volunteering leadership means to them.
