While the United Nations Volunteers (UNV) programme is inspired by the conviction that volunteerism is a way of engaging people in social development, UNV Philippines is at the forefront of promoting volunteerism in the country.

To further promote volunteerism in the Philippines, UNV Philippines welcomes local and international volunteers in Philippines to share their stories and experiences. We would like the volunteers serving in Philippines to tell us about their projects and how they overcame the challenges faced during their assignments. It is an opportunity for the volunteers to talk about their experiences in their own words and celebrate those moments.

We will publish the selected stories from volunteers on 'Inspiration in Action: Bayanihan' page which is yet another effort by UNV Philippines to inspire and attract youths towards volunteerism. As a souvenir and in recognition of their services for social development, the selected volunteers will receive UNV T-shirt or UNV Cap.

Please send your stories at unvgroup@undp.org
