The conference will focus on research in the field of volunteering and voluntary service, and aims at answering a few of the following questions:

* why do we need research in the field of voluntary service ?
* what is the impact of voluntary service on the volunteer and the hosting community, and how could we measure it ?
* how does volunteering differ in Europe and in Africa ?

To answer these and more questions there will be interventions from researchers from Europe and Sounth Africa, the European Commission and the United Nations Volunteers.
