"Volunteering is an indispensable tool in encouraging the active support of society. It effectively acts as a catalyst for greater social integration. Studies also show that the development of volunteering could help increase European GDP by 5%. Yet, volunteering still faces many obstacles that stand in the way of its development in the European Union. I voted for Mr Scurria’s report as it proposes concrete actions to promote cross-border voluntary activities in the EU; for example, the creation of a European portal that would allow for more effective cooperation between organisations active in the field of volunteering and encourage the dissemination of best practices, or the creation of a European Skills Passport, which could be very useful in that each volunteer would have EU-wide recognition of their qualifications gained through volunteering."@en1
