Holding the week on the eve of International Volunteer Day – December 5 – is one of the important steps towards a wider celebration of this day in our country.

The projects implemented during this period, marking the 5th anniversary of our glorious Victory, are aimed at strengthening loyalty to the traditions of our country's statehood, national solidarity, and the spirit of patriotism as a whole.
All events organized during the week will contribute to expanding the participation of young volunteers in public processes, as well as strengthening their commitment to statehood, sovereignty, and national values.
Since 2018, Azerbaijan Volunteer Week, which is held annually on December 5, the eve of International Volunteer Day, and has already become a tradition, has been implemented with the joint support of the Youth Fund and partner organizations. The events organized as part of this program not only provide volunteers with opportunities for personal development but also further strengthen their position as a driving force for positive change in society.
