Civic Engagement & Service Community and National Service Working Paper

Civic Service Worldwide: Social Development Goals and Partnerships

By CSD • July 1, 2003November 6, 2018

Civic service is a long-term, intensive form of volunteering. This article reports on a global assessment of civic service, which identified 210 programs in 57 countries. Program goals and administrative partnerships suggest that civic service is a social development intervention. For civic service to achieve its potential, research is recommended regarding server inclusivity, goal accomplishment, and the nature and effect of partnerships.
