Volunteerism and the Community

In assessment task three, you are back in your project officer role (the one from assessment task one). This time, you have been tasked with a piece of work about the future of volunteering in emergency and disaster management (E&DM) and exploring opportunities for enhancing it. You will present your work at a symposium, which will be attended by executives and leaders from a range of not-for-profit organisations, specialists in volunteering, plus those from the E&DM sector. Your task is below:

Task details
You are asked to explore other organisations (two different organisations) that are actively involved in the volunteer sector or have volunteering as a fundamental part of their organisational fabric. You will be looking for lessons, policies, practices and approaches that can either be directly or, with a little creativity or out-of-the-box thinking, be applied to enhance volunteering in E&DM. One (1) of the two (2) organisations can be aligned in some way to E&DM efforts, for example, the Red Cross. BUT the second organisation must ill totally separate from E&DM. You can select any two organisations. Some examples have been provided in the Learning Guide (see Moodie). You may use any of the examples provided or select your own organisations. The presentation has two parts: Presentation Part 1): for each organisation, your presentation will cover the following:

1. Name of the organisation and its charter (who are they and what do they do)
2. Key demographics (for example, location(s) of operation, number of volunteers)
3. Role volunteering plays within the selected organisation
4. Different functions volunteers perform within the organisation
5. Summary statement about how the organisation is the same or different, from a volunteering perspective to emergency services or disaster management volunteer organisations and approaches.

Presentation Part 2): Based on the analysis of each of the two organisations. you will make a total of three (3) recommendations for enhancing an aspect of volunteering in E&DM. Your recommendations can relate to volunteering broadly (for example, broad policy or practice recommendations) or a particular aspect (for example, a method of recruitment or retention) or a combination of both. Your recommendation must draw on your understanding of the literature and use that literature to support your choice. The recommendations must show how the E&DM can work collaboratively (that is, with) the community or those outside E&DM to enhance volunteering.
