ماذا يحدث عندما تتطوع؟ | Vijay Manivel | TEDxKings Mills Youth

غالباً ما يبدأ التطوع برغبة في مساعدة الآخرين، لكن أثره كثيراً ما يمتد إلى أبعد مما نتوقع. في هذه المحاضرة من TEDxKings Mills Youth، يتناول المتحدث كيف يمكن لتقديم الوقت والمهارات أن يغيّر حياة الآخرين، وأيضاً نظرة المتطوع إلى نفسه وعلاقاته وإحساسه بالهدف. ويعرض دروساً مستخلصة من العمل التطوعي، ويوضح كيف يمكن للأفعال اللطيفة الصغيرة أن تبني روابط ذات معنى وتحدث تغييراً دائماً.

• كيف يؤثر التطوع في المتطوع نفسه
• كيف تبني الخدمة العلاقات وتتحدى الافتراضات
• الأثر الدائم للأفعال اللطيفة الصغيرة
