Youth Research Dialogue
Voices of Change: 30 Years of EU Youth Volunteering
Join us for our second RAY Youth Research Dialogue on 30 April.
This episode will take place in the context of the European Youth Week as well as this year’s celebrations for 30 years of EU Youth Volunteering.
We will take a closer look at the history, impact, challenges, learnings, and future needs of volunteering activities in the context of the European youth programmes. Besides sharing insights from RAY research on this topic, we will hear valuable inputs from experts from the SALTO European Solidarity Corps Resource Centre.
Discussion points will include changes and challenges over time, a closer look at the different programme formats during 30 years of volunteering, the impact and effects of volunteering on individual, community and societal levels, as well as recognition of volunteering.
We will also address implications for policy and practice and future needs for youth volunteering, including its structural recognition and requirements for the new generation of the European youth programme.
Join us for this celebration talk where we connect insights from research and inspiring stories from 30 years of EU Youth Volunteering.

What are the Youth Research Dialogues?
The overall aim of the ‘Youth Research Dialogues’ series is to not only to make RAY research findings more accessible but also other European youth research studies and create a dialogue between researchers about their findings. The ‘Youth Research Dialogues’ series promotes different topics, e.g. inclusion and diversity, pandemic and youth work, digitalisation etc. In addition to researchers from the RAY Network, the ‘Youth Research Dialogues’ series features research colleagues from different global and European contexts and networks.
