This video takes us to the different steps of the 2018 State of the World's Volunteerism Report research process.

"If there were no volunteers" is a video poem composed by Ephron Gausi, a UN volunteer researcher for the 2018 State of the World's Volunteerism Report.  

On Friday, June 5, 2015, the United Nations Volunteers program will issue a report on the effectiveness of volunteering programs around the world. I obtained an advance copy of the report. The report suggests that volunteerism is a critical piece in moving forward to address global problems like the Millennium Development Goals and the post 2015  Sustainable Development Goals.
