Resource Document: Innovations in International Volunteering

I was interested to find out about Innovations for Civic Participation, an organisation that promotes the creation of opportunities for young people to engage with their communities. Based in the US, it encourages the creation of a network of organisations that are active and committed to the case of youth participation in civic activities. The ICP is involved in a range of programmes, details of which may be an interesting read for people involved in youth volunteering. 

In 2008, V commissioned the ICP to conduct a study of 22 innovative youth volunteering programmes from around the world – the resulting document is a good read for anyone working in the sector.
