| Research Abstract |
This project was carried out in order to advance the international comparative study on volunteering culture, by analyzing the public survey data of Canada & Korea. We use NSGVP data 1999, 2000, and CSGVP data2004, conducted by the Canadian Federal Government, as well as SGVK data 1999, 2002, 2005 conducted by “Volunteer 21" in Korea and Social Statistical data 1999, 2003, 2006 conducted by the Korean Government.
Using these data sources, we analyzed the following points.
1) Life-cycle analysis on volunteer activities of male and female. 2) Comparative analysis between Earnest group and Indifferent group for volunteer activities. 3) Analysis on Strengths gained from volunteer activities. 4) Regional comparative analysis. 5) Analysis on factors which influence the level of volunteer activities. We especially found that volunteer activities are likely to promote the inequality of income, functioning as one of the Cultural Capitals.
Gaining collaboration with Dr. Kang Hyun Lee (President of International Association for Volunteer Effort), Dr. Ki-Soo Eun (Associate Professor of Sociology Graduate School of International Studies in Seoul National University), Dr. Agnes Meinhard (Director of Centre for Voluntary Sector Studies, Associate Professor of Ted Rogers School of Management in Ryerson University), Dr. Michael H. Hall (Vice President of Imagine Canada), we could hold the international symposium, firstly at Ritsumeikan University, January 2008, and secondly at Seoul National University, March 2009, and we could enhance the international network of researchers in this field.
