The Volunteers for Families partnership is comprised of ANJAF, IVA, GLL and Pari e Dispari. The project arises from the fact that 2011 was the European Year of Volunteering and that all of the organizations involved work in the field of providing services to families. The partners are four voluntary organizations working in Germany, Italy, Portugal and Turkey. Each partner has been involved in researching the situation of volunteer work on behalf of families in their own country and receiving the partnership on a visit focused on getting acquainted with the national situation of volunteer work, including the presentation of national best practices.
This project based on exchanges is a way for the organizations involved on one hand to valorise their skills by presenting their experience and on the other hand to offer them new points of reference and ideas in their practice and context. Also, by including the training requirements and norms of each country, the results of this partnership will be helpful in creating a greater awareness of common and diverse European realities and contributing for a higher standard of volunteer work throughout Europe. Institutions involved in this project will have a first hand experience and participation in new approaches regarding the organization of volunteer work on behalf of families, responding to some of their own specific groups of priority intervention needs, whether it is the elderly, single parent families or any other.
