The Irish Volunteering Index is coming!

11-05-2026

The largest research project into social engagement and volunteering is coming to Ireland for the first time.

We aim to gain an understanding of what is happening in volunteering across communities. This research into engagement and volunteering highlights what is already going well, but also where the priorities lie for the coming years.

You can participate if you're a Local Authority, a sectoral body or an organisation that engage volunteers.
