(4) In fast-changing societies, and taking into account the disappearance of established social and family safety nets, which is connected with that process of change, there is a need to ensure the effectiveness of volunteer-supporting infrastructure to allow more people to engage in voluntary activities. It is therefore important to support peer- learning and the exchange of good practices at Community, national, regional and local level.

Recital 15
(15) Despite this, the potential of volunteering is still not fully realised. Furthermore, at European level until now the work which those who volunteer in their free time perform has not been formally acknowledged. A European Year of Volunteering will therefore provide the opportunity to demonstrate in a European context that volunteering increases civic participation. It can help foster a sense of belonging and commitment of citizens to their society at all levels — local, regional, national and European.
