Nearly 1 in 2 people in the Netherlands volunteered in 2025.
According to recent reporting by NL Times, based on data from Statistics Netherlands (CBS), almost half of the Dutch population contributed their time, skills or energy to support their communities.
Behind this number are thousands of people helping others, sharing knowledge, creating opportunities and turning ideas into action.
At MVIDEE, we see civic engagement not only as volunteering but also as empowering young people to participate, contribute and lead.
Through projects such as EcoSocial Voices, EcoSteps and Regenerative Visions, we work with young people across Europe to strengthen active citizenship, sustainability skills, creativity and community participation.
Different projects. One shared goal: helping young people become confident contributors to positive change in their communities and beyond.
And if you’re looking for a way to get involved, we’re always happy to connect with people who would like to volunteer, collaborate or contribute to our initiatives.
