Volunteering in Romania

WORLD VOLUNTEER CAFE

"World Cafe" is a powerful method for creating meaningful and cooperative dialogue around questions participants perceive to truly matter. It is based on the idea that „If you can exchange opinions, you can change the future!"

What we aim with this event is to acquire, in a direct and interactive manner, other perspectives on volunteering from the foreign students in Cluj-Napoca. The main objective of the action is the exchange of information and opinions so that at the end of the discussion session we can have a global view on volunteering.

In this respect we propose a discussion session in a café in the central part of Cluj-Napoca with the theme "Volunteering in your country!" where the audience has the opportunity to find out information on the status of the concept and practice of volunteering in the countries presented at the event. The foreign students are invited to present the countries where they come from as well as the associative environment there. Each country present at the event will have its own space allocated so that the representatives of that particular country can interact with the participants and engage in discussion on the theme of the café.

The event is organized within the National Campaign for Promoting Volunteering "It's time to be different! Noble deeds are not for money!" The campaign is a communication effort on divers channels to different groups of audience that includes a series of events organized in different locations around Romania .
