Prior to the pandemic, @MilesiCeci and I created a methodology taking #participatory #Action #research principles to help organisations of all shapes and sizes to identify the contributions that volunteers bring to @SDG16Plus This framework is flexible and adaptive, please share!

[Global Change @GlobalChangeC]

How do volunteers and activists contribute to the achievement of SDG 16 (justice, peace, inclusion and accountability)? Ask @ceciliamilesi and @EriLop for the UN Global Volunteer Innovation Challenge @UNVolunteers , whose answer they captured in a Flexible Model

To those of you in my network that have questioned the value of volunteerism for social change, do take a look at the 2021 SWVR. Particularly leading feminist perspectives on volunteerism https://t.co/H5x3JJn80o
