Volunteer Engagement in Action

Case studies and resources

Background

Funded by the Australian Department of Social Services, the Volunteer Management Activity 2022-2026 program (VMA) is designed to increase opportunities for people to participate in volunteering activities and to build capacity of volunteer-involving organisations. 

Volunteering Victoria has partnered with organisations across the state to progress the goals of this program. To learn more about the program history and our Consortium partners, see our VMA page below:
