Volunteering Tasmania State Conference 2021 (Re)Defining Volunteering

Volunteering Tasmania State Conference 2021 | (Re)Defining Volunteering

Held in celebration of International Volunteer Managers Day, the Volunteering Tasmania State Conference 2021 will focus on the topic (Re)Defining Volunteering.

Recent times have made Volunteer Managers and Coordinators aware of the vulnerability of the volunteering sector, and the need to adapt and change ways of engaging and managing volunteers.

Volunteering Tasmania invites delegates to (re)consider and (re)define what volunteering is all about, and what excellence looks like in best practice volunteer management.

The State Conference 2021 will offer a combination of professional development for leaders of volunteers in Tasmania, while facilitating connection and networking opportunities to share experiences and knowledge across the volunteering sector.

The conference program includes a combination of inspiring keynote and plenary speakers, panel discussions and interactive Let's Talk Sessions.
