The initiative, co-managed with GCBA, arose with two major main objectives: on the one hand, to promote and encourage volunteering, and on the other hand, to give visibility to organizations that carry out volunteer actions in this context.

How did the Congress develop?

The Congress was held in 3 thematic days virtually. During each day, the speakers presented their axes to later give rise to the exchange and debate with the participants.

From this space, we hope to be able to build bridges that shorten the distances between the different expressions and practices of volunteering and solidarity actions that are carried out in social organizations, companies and State programs in Argentina and the world.
