Online Volunteering

List of Research On Online Volunteering...

While there is a plethora of articles and information about online volunteering, there has been very little research done on the subject. The UN Volunteers programme, which hosts and manages the Online Volunteering service, hopes to engage in research activities regarding OV in 2005. In addition to making plans for this research, UNV staff have also compiled a list of all research relating to OV that we know about. We hope these links to OV research will help those of you interested in learning about OV in depth.

The OV service staff is also interested in connecting with university-based researchers interested in including the OV service in their studies of any aspect of online volunteering. Our new OV research page also includes a list of suggestions for research about online volunteering that we hope researchers will undertake. Please contact us with complete details about your proposal (confirmation from the university of your studies will be requested if we approve your proposal). Send details to info@onlinevolunteering.org
