Volunteering Australia has joined with Justice Connect to call on all Australian governments to ‘have the back’ of Australia’s volunteer workforce in the COVID-19 crisis by overcoming the pandemic insurance gap for volunteers. We have published a Joint Policy Statement outlining our recommendations.
We will continue to advocate for the need to overcome the volunteering protection gap, a critical issue to reinvigorating volunteering across Australia.
