State of the World’s Volunteerism Report Released

The very first State of the World’s Volunteerism Report (SWVR) by the United Nations Volunteers (UNV) programme was launched on Dec. 5, 2011, in many countries around the world. The Report is expected to enhance recognition, facilitation, networking and promotion of volunteerism worldwide. It will also increase recognition of the critical role of UNV as an organization that sets standards in peace and development, as well as in volunteerism, in the United Nations system.
