Civic engagement; information and engagement advice

Civic engagement is a voluntary and unpaid donation of time by citizens. An activity is voluntary if it is carried out voluntarily and unpaid, serves the common good and is not for profit. The reimbursement of expenses incurred by volunteers in carrying out their activities does not affect whether they are unpaid.

In Bavaria, volunteer agencies, volunteer centers and civic engagement coordination centers are available to provide advice on volunteering as a cross-field infrastructure in districts and independent cities. Their tasks include the county-wide networking of associations and initiatives, volunteer coordination, advice for interested citizens and organizations, qualification offers, the organization of specialist lectures, help with insurance issues as well as local needs assessment and public relations work.

If you would like to volunteer and are looking for a suitable task, the local volunteer agencies, volunteer centers and civic engagement coordination centers can support you. Sponsors, associations, organizations and local authorities can contact these agencies if they need advice or are looking for volunteers.
