TY - CONF ID - 2416837 AU - Dohnalová, Zdeňka - Zelenková, Iveta PY - 2024 TI - UNVEILING THE SYNERGY: VOLUNTEERISM, SERVICE LEARNING, AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT IN ACADEMIC SETTINGS KW - service learning, community engagement, volunteerism, university students N2 - This academic article investigates the intricate relationship among volunteerism, service learning, and community engagement within the context of academic institutions. Recognizing the transformative potential of these interconnected elements, the study aims to unravel their collaborative impact on personal and community development. Volunteerism, often regarded as a selfless contribution to societal well-being, intersects with service learning - an educational approach integrating experiential learning with community service - creating a dynamic environment for fostering active citizenship. The article employs a qualitative research design, combining a comprehensive literature review, theoretical framework development, and empirical analysis. Through an exploration of focus groups underscores the mutually reinforcing nature of volunteerism, service learning, and community engagement. It examines the role of reflectivity, reciprocal partnerships, and community-driven initiatives in enhancing the educational and societal outcomes of these endeavours. Findings from the study shed light on the transformative potential of combining volunteerism and service learning, emphasizing the reciprocal benefits for both students and the communities they serve. The research discusses the development of key competencies, including critical thinking, cultural competence, and social responsibility, as integral outcomes of this symbiotic relationship. Moreover, the article addresses the challenges and opportunities associated with integrating volunteerism and service learning into academic curricula, providing insights for educators, coordinators, and community stakeholders. The implications of this research extend to the broader discourse on the role of higher education institutions in fostering socially responsible and engaged citizens. By emphasizing the integration of volunteerism and service learning, academic communities can contribute significantly to the cultivation of civic-minded individuals who actively participate in community development. This article contributes to the ongoing dialogue on effective strategies for merging volunteerism, service learning, and community engagement within the educational landscape, advocating for a holistic approach to experiential learning that transcends traditional classroom boundaries.
