“International Volunteer Day (IVD)
offers an opportunity for volunteer organizations and individual volunteers to
make visible their contributions - at local, national and international levels
- to the achievement of the Millennium
Achievement Goals” informed Sandeep Marwah President of World Peace Development
And Research Foundation & Ambassador of IHRO affiliated to United Nations.
Apart from mobilizing thousands of
volunteers every year, the United
Nations Volunteers (UNV) programme works closely with
partners and governments to establish national volunteer programmes to create
structures that foster and sustain local volunteerism in countries.
On International Volunteer Day (IVD) 2013, we not only celebrate and recognize volunteerism in all its facets – but pay special tribute to the contribution of youth volunteers in global peace and sustainable human development.
