"Cross-border volunteering is an engine for the creation of human capital and, above all, a driver for activity and development, particularly among young people. I would like to note that voluntary activities make it possible for us to overcome problems and even major crises. We need merely to harness the human and social energy and the thousands of ideas of all these volunteers. Statistical studies show that there are around 115 million volunteers in the European Union alone. It is apparent that this represents a huge potential which should be sought out, nurtured and promoted. It is also interesting that three quarters of employers prefer to employ candidates with volunteering experience on their CVs. I, for my part, have always supported and encouraged young people to undertake voluntary activities, and I therefore voted in favour of the Scurria report on cross-border voluntary activities in the EU."@en1
