Citizenship

This group is exploring the current relationships that exist between learning, volunteering and citizenship. It recognises that the volunteering – citizenship relationship may be more explicitly recognised and is therefore investigating how ULLL can contribute to the debate. It is drawing upon experiences and reference materials at both a European level and from countries represented in the group.

The members of the group are:

• CSVnet (IT) (Leader)
• University of Barcelona IL3-UB (ES)
• OTS - Third Sector Observatori (ES)
• Middle East Technical University (TR)
