The last day of the IVCO Conference will focus on the key take-aways for the future through a dialogue on what it means to shift from ‘volunteering for development’ to ‘volunteering for solidarity’ approach, and what we might need to ‘pack’ for this journey. We will consider practical examples and approaches to building solidarity and sustaining connections in times of crises.

This panel will also explore the ways in which volunteering can challenge those inequalities and build alternative strategies and approaches (with a focus on ethics and integrity) that foster more socially and environmentally just futures.
