[Report] Understanding Volunteerism in Canada

This project aims to understand the motivations and barriers Canadians face regarding volunteering. We analyzed data from the 2021 and 2022 waves of the Canadian Social Connection Survey (CSCS) and conducted six focus groups with a subset of survey respondents. Results explore types of volunteer work undertaken, motivations for volunteering barriers to participation, trajectories for different volunteer activities, and ey sociodemographic factor shaping patterns of volunteer participation.
