UN Volunteers organized a Policy Roundtable at the 2017 ARNOVA Conference to discuss the United Nations ‘Plan of Action for Integrating Volunteering into Peace and Development for the Next Decade and Beyond’ and the emerging findings of the State of the World's Volunteerism Report 2018.
The ARNOVA conference was designed to create a public conversation on, as well as opportunities for presenting research about, pressing issues and vital opportunities facing the voluntary or nonprofit sector. It is both a showcase for the best and most current research, as well as a seed bed from which new research is born. This three-day event includes two plenary sessions, 180+ panel and/or paper presentation sessions, a poster session and numerous opportunities for networking/idea sharing.
