"I voted in favour of this report because initiatives implemented in the European Year of Voluntary Activities Promoting Active Citizenship (2011) were a success at national, regional and European levels, and we therefore need to underline the value of volunteering clearly and unequivocally. 2012, the European Year for Active Ageing and Solidarity between Generations will be another important occasion to reflect on the value of volunteering in everyday life and to give older people the chance to make their own contribution to the growth of solidarity in the community. Volunteering is an informal learning experience suitable for persons of all ages. It offers benefits in terms of personal development, strengthening of democracy, civic values and social solidarity and more active participation in democratic life, intercultural learning and the acquisition of social and professional skills, and contributes to the aims of European Union policies on social inclusion and combating discrimination, as well as on employment, education, culture, development of skills and citizenship. It is an important factor for achieving the goals of the Europe 2020 strategy."@en1
