Enhancing Volunteer Impact - Developing European Management Standards (EviDems)

EVI-DEMS aims to better understand the current state of training and qualifications currently available to existing and potential volunteer leaders. With this better understanding, partners will develop a higher education curriculum and associated resources that will enable partners and other stakeholders to increase the opportunities across Europe to adequately train existing and future volunteer leaders at higher education level and to obtain a recognised qualification based on the Common European Standards for Volunteer Leader Training. This will ensure effective and more ethical management of volunteers across Europe, avoiding exploitation, instrumentalisation and substitution of labour. Better trained and qualified volunteer managers will also increase the overall capacity of communities in disaster prevention, preparedness and recovery, as well as diversity and inclusiveness in the voluntary sector, as better trained and qualified volunteer managers will be able to assess the inclusiveness of the organisations in which they work and develop, manage and monitor proactive plans and strategies to reduce the risks of lack of inclusiveness.
