The Municipality of Trento and the Center for Volunteer Services (CSV) for Trentino paved the way for Trento’s candidacy as the European Volunteering Capital through a participatory process engaging the whole Trentino community. The results of this process informed the candidacy and the process continues even now that Trento has been proclaimed European Volunteering Capital. The outcomes combine the views of everyone, not just people from the volunteering sector, but from wider Trento society.
