🚀 From research to action: Building mentally healthy volunteering in Georgia! 🚀
The findings of the VOLU-MENT research show that volunteering has a positive impact on young people's wellbeing, confidence and sense of belonging. At the same time, volunteers also highlighted the importance of stronger organisational support.
That is why the Volu-Ment 2030 Action Plan focuses on creating psychologically safe volunteering environments where every volunteer feels supported from the beginning of their journey.
🌱 Our priorities include:
🤝 Dedicated mentors and regular check-ins
💬 Safe spaces for peer support and open conversations
📱 Digital wellbeing tools to help volunteers monitor their emotional wellbeing
⭐ Meaningful volunteering experiences with clear expectations, recognition and opportunities for personal growth
Together, we can create volunteering environments where helping others also means taking care of ourselves.
💙 Which of these actions would have the biggest impact in your organisation? Tell us in the comments!
