An update on a project I started working on back in April:
I’m researching “the state of the art of knowledge on internet-mediated volunteering in Europe.” The report will include information on how internet-mediated volunteering – virtual volunteering, online volunteering, microvolunteering, crowdsourcing, etc. – may contribute, or could contribute, to the employability of young people (skills development, career exploration, job advancement, etc.) and better social inclusion.
I’ve been maintaining a wiki about resources I’ve been finding.
I haven’t updated the wiki in a while – I’ve been spending the past few weeks focused on getting the final report done (deadline is July 15 – wish me luck).
But I have just updated two resources on the wiki I wanted to share and welcome any updates for:
Organisations that involve online volunteers in the EU.
The final paper may be published in a journal by the University of Hertfordshire (U.K.) later this year. I’ll post here on my blog, and via my various online networks, if/when it is.
