Volunteerism in the Digital Age

GK3, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 12 December 2007

Elaboration on the Panellist/Speaker’s message

Volunteering is a mass social phenomenon and an expression of solidarity in development action involving hundreds of millions of people worldwide. In an era when the international community and decision makers are grappling with the challenges of spreading opportunities for human development as widely as possible, it is timely to consider the role and contribution of Volunteerism in the Digital Age. Rapid advancement in the field of ICT has made the world more connected. It has also led to a vast divide between those with ICT access and skills, and those without. Without ICT access and skills, people are unable to connect and reap opportunities presented by a networked world, and are thus in danger of being left behind. ICT Volunteerism has a crucial role to play in furthering the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and in bridging this divide.
