Get ready for IVCO with a podcast and blog post on youth volunteering in Monglia

"Young Mongolians, who make up a third of the total population, are often interested in volunteering but are unsure how to find volunteer opportunities."

— Zach Conn, Australian volunteer for Caritas Czech Republic

We're proud to see the work of the Innovation Hub and our partners in Mongolia featured in a recent blog post for the International Volunteering Cooperation Organisations (IVCO) 2023 Conference.

The theme of this year's conference is 'A New Generation of Volunteers as Changemakers' and is a great fit for the All for YOUth, YOUth for All project in Mongolia. This four-year European Union-funded project is delivered by Caritas Czech Republic, the Mongolian Youth Council, and the Center for Citizenship Education, with support from the Innovation Hub.

In the blog article and accompanying podcast, Australian volunteer, Zach Conn, shares Czech Republic Caritas' experience participating in two innovation projects: Global Volunteering Accelerator and Growing Volunteering at the Community Level. You will also hear our partner organisation and Zach exploring how the All for YOUth, YOUth for All project leverages the opportunities presented by the new and evolving volunteering space in Mongolia and fosters connections between youth and organisations seeking volunteers.
