NCVO Pathways Through Participation report
‘The three-year NCVO-led project in partnership with the Institute for Volunteering Research (IVR) and Involve finds people get involved in activities which have personal meaning and value to them and connect them with the people, interests and issues they hold dear. The report highlights the importance of institutions and organisations in creating an environment in which participation can flourish - such as linking up people with similar interests or concerns and providing spaces or multi purpose hubs for people to come together.
