Abstract

Volunteer work in Algeria, as a model combining national and international practices, is characterized by its voluntary nature as a means of serving and developing society.Its organization and structure vary depending on the entity.On the one hand, there are local experiences, such as charitable associations that promote volunteer work through their programs.On the other hand, young people contribute to diverse initiatives to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals and develop personal and social skills.The United Nations, for example, promotes multilateralism and sustainability through its volunteers, using tangible, practical action.Algeria's national experience in volunteer work began with the emergence of the National Association for Voluntary Work, a prominent local model that has gained recognition both nationally and internationally at the regional level.Based on the foregoing, we can summarize our discussion of volunteer work in Algeria, examining both the national experience and international practices, through an analysis of the National Association for Voluntary Work in Algeria.This association serves as a successful local model, both nationally and internationally, in volunteerism as an organized social activity aimed at serving the community, strengthening solidarity, and promoting the values of citizenship and sustainable development.Therefore, we begin our research by exploring volunteer work in Algeria, comparing national and international experiences, and then presenting an analytical reading of the National Association for Voluntary Work in Algeria as a pioneering example in activating volunteer initiatives within society.
