We invite you to contribute to a discussion about the futureof volunteering as we prepare for International Volunteer Year 2026. The globalbody for volunteering – IAVE – has asked Volunteering New Zealand to inputviews from our part of the world.

Your opinions will also help us as we write our Decade ofState of Volunteering report (2016 – 26).

Be part of the discussion about:

·      How has volunteering been impacted by recent events e.g. Covid pandemic, cost-of-living pressures. What changes are you seeing in response?

·      What do you envision for the future sustainability and development of volunteering?

·      Who could help make this happen, and what roles and responsibilities do they have?
