Empowering Asian Youth Through Volunteering written by Elaine S. C. Liu and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2019-08-29 with Voluntarism categories.

This book describes the origin, development and current state of volunteerism in Asia and Hong Kong. It also presents a field-tested model of empowering through volunteerism (namely, the CYEP at City University), that involves youth, governmental and non-governmental agencies and their clients in a rapidly changing society. Volunteerism is then described as a "win-win" situation for all stakeholders/actors. Volunteerism converges the needs, the struggles, the personal motives and the aspirations of the volunteers, together with the dreams and the difficulties of the clients, the expertise of the professionals and the (lack of) resources of the agencies, the new values emerging in society, the effects of globalization and the new policies. This book presents actual Asian case examples with the voices of the people involved on the CYEP (volunteers, officers, service recipients) who explain how volunteering changed their lives, their values, their attitudes toward social, civic and political participation, their ethics and sense of individual responsibility. These stories from the frontlines can be adopted and/or adopted for use by other institutions, but it is also the chance for understanding the emergence of volunteering in Asia overall, and its future direction.

Volunteering is continuously changing: new people become volunteers, new forms of activities arise and new parties become involved. "New trends in the development of volunteering in the European Union" contains the results of a research project on changes in the European Union within the field of volunteerism, volunteering and volunteer activities. The most general concept, volunteerism, consists of two connected and inter-related parts: supply (from potential volunteers) and demand (from organizations). Volunteer activities, actual observable volunteering, are created when supply and demand come together. The objective of the study is to create classifications of potential volunteers (supply) and potential volunteering opportunities (demand) to explain that particular combinations will lead to actual volunteering or volunteer activities. The number of potential volunteers can be explained at the macro level by institutional factors. The amount of potential volunteer opportunities can be explained by the volunteering infrastructure. Potential volunteers, potential volunteer opportunities and the matching process are investigated by combining a theoretical and empirical perspective. The theoretical part provides a theoretical framework to analyse volunteerism, volunteering and volunteer activities based upon academic literature. The empirical part is based upon interviews and desk research and focusses on five countries: the Netherlands, Spain, Hungary, Croatia and Finland. This selection is based on a representation of the following criteria: Dominant emotions concerning volunteering (see Dekker 2002): unpaid labour (Croatia, Hungary), active membership (Netherlands, Finland) and active citizenship (Spain) ; Dominant perspectives on the value of volunteering to society (see Bos, 2014): welfare (Hungary, Croatia), economy (Netherlands), democracy (Spain, Finland) and community (Netherlands) ; Nonprofit regimes (Salamon and Anheier, 1998): Corporatist (Netherlands, Spain), Social Democrat (Finland) and Statist (Croatia, Hungary).
