Abstract |
In this paper the authors argue that while it is no longer sufficient to simply assert that volunteering is a good thing, it is insufficient and potentially damaging to focus solely on the economic impact of volunteering. The authors suggest more sophisticated measures are required and recommend a total audit to focus on the physical and human capital produced and the social and cultural capital generated. |
