"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, with today’s vote, Parliament is finally giving due recognition to volunteering activities, both domestic and cross-border. The European Skills Passport for voluntary service finally certifies that volunteering is a source of learning, not only from an ethical and personal point of view, but also for citizens’ working lives and professional careers. All voluntary organisations will henceforth have the opportunity to get more information on funding and on European projects, and their involvement will be facilitated by reducing costs and administrative burdens.
Promoting volunteering in all its forms is set to become a priority for the EU in the coming years, a tool to combat racism and prejudice and stimulate intercultural and inter-faith dialogue. This is a tribute to the over 100 million citizens across Europe, who are working on a daily basis on behalf of those who are truly in need. These are values – and this we must never forget – that nourish the foundations of the Europe in which we live and which, day after day, we strive to improve."@en1
