The world is ageing.

It’s time to recognize the power of volunteering later in life.

Research by UNV and @ILO shows how older volunteers shape our world and why their role is so vital in ageing societies 👇🏽 @ILO_EMP_Policy https://t.co/3xX7LN1MJK

Q: Can volunteering contribute to gender equality?

A: YES!
Because volunteering…
🔵Promotes girls’ access to education
🟡Builds women’s leadership skills
🟠Breaks down gender stereotypes
🟢Empowers women to make decisions

What do UN Volunteers do? A lot.

They team up directly with local populations to bring people together and rebuild, especially in places recovering from crisis or with limited resources.

Estimates show that if all volunteers formed a country, it would:

1⃣be the world’s 2nd most populous country
2⃣rank among the largest economies

In #Kenya 🇰🇪, the same exercise shows 13+ million volunteers generate an estimated US$1.8 billion.

#WomenInScience make the world better 💙

On the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, let’s ensure every mind has the chance to shape a shared future #ForAllWomenAndGirls.

[UNESCO @UNESCO]

Science thrives when everyone can contribute.

Yet women and girls still face barriers in scientific careers not due to a lack of talent, but a lack of equity. Excluding half of humanity weakens science and limits progress.

On #WomenInScience Day, let’s reaffirm that inclusive science is better science: https://t.co/1atVu19Mow

Humanity thrives when everyone can contribute to science and shape our world🔬

Volunteering helps open access and build skills for more people, including women professionals like Elizabeth Naibor, UN Volunteer Information Systems Specialist at @UNEP.

[UN Volunteers East and Southern Africa @UNV_ESARO]

Every second, someone volunteers somewhere around the world.

But how do we value #volunteer efforts? The Global Index of Volunteer Engagement (GIVE) in the 2026 State of the World’s Volunteerism Report by @UNVolunteers provides a framework.
