(opens in a new window)The Value and Impact of Higher Education Student Volunteering in Ireland' report.
UCD in the Community, as a member of the working group, is delighted to share this report with you. The report serves to highlight the value and impact that student volunteers play, not only in our HEIs, but in local, regional, national and international communities. The report also highlights a number of recommendations that we have identified that can further support this valuable work and grow HE student volunteering across the island of Ireland.
Student volunteers are a major force underpinning Irish higher education institutions’ civic role and driving Ireland’s agenda to create an island of inclusion and engagement.
We encourage you to read it and share it with your colleagues, student volunteers and community partners.
