XVI School of Volunteering (Autumn School) – International Meeting, 8th and 9th of September 2011 in Madrid (Spain)
Why this year?
This year is especially exciting and important for the Spanish Volunteering Platform (PVE) as we are celebrating our 25th Year Anniversary and it is also the European Year of Volunteering as well as the UN IYV+10. For that reason we want to celebrate this happy coincidence with an International Meeting that gives our School of Volunteering an international perspective to emphasize the importance of solidarity across borders, while stressing the recognition of volunteering as a universal fact. 
Which is all part of the European Year of Volunteering (EYV 2011), whose objectives are: To create an enabling and facilitating environment for volunteering in the EU; To empower volunteer organizations and improve the quality of volunteering; To reward and recognize volunteering activities; and To raise awareness of the value and importance of volunteering.
What are our objectives?
We want our School to be framed into three dimensions: knowledge, recognition and internationalism. We have these objectives for this year:
- To Foster the recognition of volunteering as a social agent.
- To sensitize on how important volunteering is for a critical and active citizenship.
- To widen the citizenship knowledge of volunteering.
- To learn about the structure and characteristics of volunteering as an international movement.
- To learn and discuss on different models of social participation at an international level.
- To create space for sharing where volunteers all over Spain and other countries will meet, participate and share their knowledge and experiences.
When & where?

Finding Grants for College. You are in a position to set off your small business also through a variety of federal government grants.
Many of the grants are set aside for no traditional students.
Many mothers who are within the middle of divorce proceedings and should not
pursue it further as a consequence of financial limitations can obtain Legal
Help for Single Mom. These help with more day-to-day things.
