Depending on where you live and how your environment is like, your experience in volunteering can vary in many ways – <\/span>resources, attitudes, causes, impact<\/span><\/i>\u2026and so on. In today\u2019s post I\u2019d love to quickly share with you several differences I\u2019ve noticed during my time volunteering in 3 very different places: Hong Kong, UK, Denmark.<\/span><\/p>\n

Volunteering in Hong Kong<\/h2>\n

\"\"
\nHong Kong (Source: Unsplash)<\/p>\n

Hong Kong may be known as a dynamic and cosmopolitan city – yet a lot of its social issues are often overlooked. People work hard and over office hours. Whilst it\u2019s crowned the world\u2019s <\/span>most competitive economy<\/span><\/a>, it also means a lot of stress is built from work dissatisfaction and <\/span>poor work-life balance<\/span><\/a>. Problems such as social stratification is further worsened by consumer culture and a huge focus on the city\u2019s economic growth.<\/span><\/p>\n

I mentioned in the previous post that volunteering has helped me <\/span>reconnect with my hometown<\/span><\/a> – it allows me to gain a well-rounded insight to lives of communities and social groups that I missed a chance to interact with during my time abroad.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moreover, people\u2019s willingness and opinions on volunteering can tell you a lot about the city. In such a fast-paced environment like Hong Kong, I find people\u2019s attitudes towards the topic to be quite polarised. I know many see it as <\/span>\u2018a waste of time\u2019<\/span><\/i> (when they rather be resting during their free time: why the extra work?).<\/span><\/p>\n

But some also see volunteering as an active reminder that not everything in life is about monetary reward! <\/span>In fact, you\u2019re missing the point if you only expect immediate and visible outcome from volunteering.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Some of my most memorable experiences: working with\u00a0<\/span>TeenAIDS<\/a> as an event runner and ‘educator’ on HIV preventions and ‘mythbusting’ – on a huge cruise ship that sails around the world and dock in multiple cities!\u00a0\u26f5\u00a0And looking back, I’m really glad to have worked with\u00a0Fair Trade Foundation<\/a> in their exhibitions and stores. Without stepping outside of my comfort zone, at the age of 14 I would have never been aware of issues like third world exploitation otherwise.<\/span><\/p>\n

Volunteering in UK<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"
\nDurham, UK (Source: www.thisisdurham.com)<\/p>\n

I also had a few experiences during my stay in the UK. As a student, I made use of university fairs that connect students with societies and non-profit organisations. <\/span><\/p>\n

With a population of 50,000, the cozy university town I lived in was way smaller than Berlin or Munich – this means with local and small-scale organisations, you probably won\u2019t find yourself participating in the <\/span>most<\/span><\/i> influential (or societally impactful) activities. <\/span>However, this also taught me that there\u2019s no need to actively consider if an event is<\/b> \u2018worthwhile\u2019<\/i><\/b>.<\/b> In my case, I\u2019ve really enjoyed simple activities like pet-walking, and taking care of children at the local cr\u00e8che, because <\/span>they help to bridge the missing, and much needed interaction between university students and local residents.<\/b><\/p>\n

I also found <\/span>micro volunteering<\/b><\/a> to be a popular choice for busy students – for example contributing to projects that look for real-life data, donating, or simply spreading the word online for charities you support. <\/span>At the end of the day, there\u2019s always a way to do something good that will suit your lifestyle. <\/b><\/p>\n

Volunteering in Denmark<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"
\nCopenahgen, Denmark (Source: Unsplash)<\/p>\n

Denmark has always been known as the<\/span> happiest country in the world<\/span>. My time in <\/span>Copenhagen<\/b> has definitely lived up to this bold claim – this is thanks to its great welfare system, and work-life balance being an important part of Danish culture.<\/span><\/p>\n

In fact, I was surprised by how many events and non-profit organisations I volunteered in were municipally supported: this included a career fair for international (non-Danish speaking) students to connect with European start-ups, a creative Christmas market where visitors can make DIY presents using recycled and waste materials\u2026. with the government\u2019s support, there\u2019s also more resources for organisations to attract helpers (such as freebies, covering their expenses). <\/span><\/p>\n

I was grateful to be part of so many innovative and meaningful events that <\/span>encourage social integration, sparks conversation on new ideas<\/b>, and are often family friendly. Online platforms (such as <\/span>CPHVolunteers<\/span><\/a>, that is owned and subsidised by Copenhagen Kommune!) also made it extremely easy for expats to be an active part of the city.<\/span><\/p>\n

During my time in Denmark I was also remotely working as social media coordinator for a global event to advocate mental wellness. With a small team of <10 people and countless video call meetings across 5 months, we managed to host parades in over 75 cities<\/strong><\/a> as a celebration of happiness and social inclusiveness\u00a0?<\/p>\n

The Final Wrap-up\u2026.<\/span><\/h2>\n

How is it like to volunteer in where you live? No matter the size of the city, the lifestyle, or the impact you have on the community\u2026 I hope my experiences have proven that there\u2019s always a way do something good – and it\u2019s up to you to <\/span>define and offer the value to your volunteering experiences. \ud83d\ude42<\/b><\/p>\n
