This Blueprint was adopted by the Centre for European Volunteering (CEV) General Assembly in September 2021 and is organised around 5 thematic concepts:
1. Independent and inclusive engagement;
2. New volunteers and methods;
3. Empowerment;
4. Appreciation of contribution;
5. Resources & Coordination.
It serves as guidance to CEV and other stakeholders concerned with volunteering, especially policymakers, regarding the steps that need to be taken for volunteering to reach its true potential. It acknowledges that there are different cultural and legal contexts for volunteering in Europe and takes into account that the outcomes of the suggestions included will vary according to this variety of circumstances and different volunteer profiles, for example regarding age, but stresses that common values and aspects of quality indicators should be common throughout.
