?:abstract
  • The partial position paper on the topic of "Civic Engagement and Volunteering" is related to the parallel position papers of the working team of the ARL state working group NRW. Its task is to contribute to the presentation of future prospects for rural areas in North Rhine-Westphalia, to discuss problems and to make recommendations for stimulating and implementing measures. This paper focuses on the importance of civic engagement for the creation of the equivalence of living conditions, the provision of services of general interest in rural areas and as a driver of social innovation. Civic engagement is a pillar of rural development and must be understood as a driving force of regional economy, especially in rural areas. But engagement is changing. Associations, initiatives, municipalities and regions must respond to this if they take civic engagement and voluntary work seriously as a key force in shaping the future of rural areas. As a result of critically examining the challenges, the authors equate civic engagement in its core thesis with the cognition, appreciation and significance and their need for human and financial resources with that of local economic development (agencies). Four further thesis and concrete recommendations for action are derived from this basic understanding. They call for the creation of local/regional models and strategies for civic commitment in the sense of a clear "must have" for processes and projects on the future of rural areas in NRW. They refer to new concepts of life which are becoming more and more differentiated, to a culture of commitment and to a changing role of commitment in society. They point out options for networking activities, funding opportunities, support structures and their professionalization and plead for consistent investment in minds, formats and inspiring and impulse-giving places. Digitization and digital transformation are seen as a challenge, but above all as an opportunity for future engagement. The above topics are presented and explained in five core-requirements. Recommendations on the respective fields of action round off the treatise. (xsd:string)
