New board game: VolunteerIN' – The change starts with you

New board game to promote volunteering

 

Talentum Foundation for the Support of Volunteering and Caritas Alba Julia are committed to showcasing and supporting the diversity of volunteering. In order to make this important element of social participation known, accepted and interesting for young people, we created the board game "VolunteerIN' – The change starts with you". Our aim was to make volunteering more popular among young people, so that they would be brave enough to try their hand at a volunteering activity or programme. 

 

 

 

The game was developed for the secondary school age group. The game is not a stand-alone board game, but an educational game embedded in a process, around which it is recommended to organise a processing session to achieve the desired effect. The game is accompanied by a methodological guide which not only describes how to play the game, but also describes the whole process. We recommend the use of the board game to youth workers, teachers, trainers, counsellors, peer helpers, volunteer coordinators who work with young people and want to motivate their target group to volunteer. 

 

The board game is not commercially available, but Hungarian printed copies can be requested from the partners while stocks last. The downloaded game and the methodological recommendation can be used, reproduced and even developed freely and free of charge. The game is available online and can be downloaded by anyone here:
