Civic engagement<\/a>, also known as “voluntary work”, “political or social engagement”, is based on the principle of voluntary (assistance) performance without expecting anything in return.<\/p>\n

Civic engagement<\/a> can be carried out in an environmental protection, human rights or other charitable organization, but also by private individuals and means a concrete, practical use of time, money or material resources for common goals. In the first place, however, civic engagement<\/a> is a self-confident form of assuming responsibility for shaping society.<\/p>\n

Irrespective of age, it is possible for anyone to get involved; whether as a young person walking dogs, as a school graduate doing a voluntary social or ecological year (FSJ, FÖJ), as a professional (social sabbatical<\/a>, pro bono<\/a>) in an NGO, as a pensioner telling stories to children, helping to repair a bicycle or planting trees. If you want to be active, you will find something that suits your abilities.
