The Interamerican Centre for Volunteering
Development’s network of experts was strength-
ened in 2022 with continued efforts to identify
volunteers and staff to take part in the roster.
These experts, whether from National Societies,
the IFRC or external organizations, can offer
specific support to National Societies according
to their areas of expertise.
The ICVD conducted annual studies of volun-
teering management and youth development
in National Societies. These studies provided an
overview with updated information for a strate-
gic plan of action at local and regional levels.
Induction sessions were held for new volunteers
of all National Societies.
Technical support was provided to National
Societies in Venezuela, Costa Rica, Guatemala,
Honduras, Grenada, Dominican Republic,
Chile, Nicaragua, Colombia, Argentina, Trinidad
and Tobago, Bolivia, Belize, and Panama. This
included capacity building on the Volunteering
Development Platform, policy development,
assessment tool of volunteer satisfaction and
workshops on the Volunteering Development
Framework.
A volunteering in emergencies session was held
during a Pre-Hurricane Conference. The session
focused on the sudden nature and complexity of
emergencies that require National Societies to
have robust volunteer management systems in
place before emergencies so that humanitarian
services can be delivered when required.
