On the last day of June, the Centre for Democracy and Rule of Law gathered more than 60 volunteers from different regions of Ukraine for the seminar “Legal Aspects of Volunteering”.

They talked about the registration of NGOs that engage volunteers and engage in humanitarian activities, the specifics of youth volunteering and the national volunteer platform, challenges for foreign volunteers and the functioning of the volunteer register.
