Improving Volunteer Participation in NGOs: Creating Meaningful Engagement Among Young People
Seminar
17 November 2026 | Online, Spain
How can organisations create meaningful volunteering experiences, maintain volunteers' motivation and empower young people to take an active role in their communities?
Organised within the framework of the LOOM Intercultural Learning Network, this interactive webinar will bring together youth workers, educators, volunteers and representatives of youth organisations from across Europe to exchange experiences, practical tools and good practices in volunteer engagement and management.
The webinar will explore three interconnected dimensions:
- ENGAGE: Creating the right conditions for a positive volunteering experience through effective preparation, clear expectations and collaboration between sending and hosting organisations.
- SUPPORT: Maintaining motivation, strengthening mentoring practices and addressing challenges or early signs of disengagement.
- EMPOWER: Moving beyond participation towards ownership, helping volunteers develop skills, take initiative and contribute actively to their local communities.
Through practical examples, interactive discussions and a best-practice exchange, participants will have the opportunity to reflect on common challenges, share solutions and discover approaches they can apply within their own organisations.
Date: 17 November 2026
Time: 15:00 GMT (16:00 CET)
Format: Online webinar
Join us to exchange ideas, learn from other organisations and explore how to make volunteering a more meaningful and empowering experience for young people!
