Publication: The new Volunteers – The Future of Civic Participation

In our multi-option society, traditional volunteer work is becoming increasingly unpopular. What effect does this have on the role of civil society? The study ‘The new volunteers’, commissioned by the Migros Culture Percentage, addresses this question and formulates a framework for the civic engagement of the future.

The study shows that those who volunteer in future will want:

  • To get involved quickly in specific projects
  • To no longer simply provide free labour, but contribute ideas and have their say
  • To deal with and develop projects non-hierarchically
  • To get the recognition they deserve

The publication is available as a download (free of charge) in English, German and French on the GDI Website.
