A Conversation with the VAI Coordinator

Research Impressions
While we are busy finding answers to our survey, our colleagues from Leibniz University Hannover, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, University of Calabria and Verein Multikulturell are interviewing volunteers and staff from organizations to find out about their experiences with (migrant) volunteering!

Start of the online survey
Why do people volunteer? What impact does volunteering have on integration? What role do social, political and historical frameworks play in this field?
These are the questions VAI wants to investigate in the first part of the project. Università della Calabria, Leibniz Universität Hannover, University of Thessaloniki and Verein Multikulturell created a questionnaire in four languages in order to find out about volunteering in all four partner countries.
Support VAI by sharing the link to the survey or contribute yourself as an organization with your answers to our questions!
