We are pleased to inform you of our next SWVR global dialogue on “21st Century Social Contract: Building more inclusive state-society relations through volunteering” on Monday, 14 June 2021, 3:00 - 4:00 pm CEST. The dialogue is part of the 2021 State of the World's Volunteerism Report on the theme of volunteerism and the 21st Century Social Contract. 

Please use the link below to register if you would like to participate.

 

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the report will explore evolving and emerging models of volunteering that provide opportunities for collaboration across states and society, and how these impact the evolving roles and relationships of governments and people in the face of 21st century needs. But what would a new social contract between citizens and states that secures rights and dignity for all and leaves no one behind look like? How do we make sure that the state accounts for and addresses the needs of groups that are often excluded from decision making, such as refugees, persons with disabilities and indigenous peoples? And what is the role of volunteerism in ensuring that structures and systems provide inclusive outcomes for all people and groups?

By joining this global dialogue, you will take part in thought-provoking discussions on why and how we can co-design new volunteering models under an inclusive social contract.

Charting a bold new path to development where people and planet prosper requires a reset in our ways of working and collaborating. What would a new social contract between citizens and states that secures rights and dignity for all and leaves no one behind look like?

How do we make sure that the state accounts for and addresses the needs of groups that are often marginalized, such as refugees, persons with disabilities and indigenous peoples?

And what is the role of volunteerism in ensuring that structures and systems provide inclusive outcomes for all people and groups?

Position: Co -Founder of ENGAGE,a new social venture for the promotion of volunteerism and service and Ideator of Sharing4Good
