International Volunteer Day
Today is International Volunteer Day, an international event run by UN Volunteers and celebrated every year on the 5th of December. IV Day champions the impact volunteers have in communities, nationally and globally.
The theme for #IVDay2020 is #TogetherWeCan. Worldwide, volunteers have taken action at local, national, and international levels to fight against climate change and Covid-19, on top of everything volunteers usually contribute to their communities! This is why, for #IVD2020, we would like to say a MASSIVE thank you to ALL volunteers! Your investment and sacrifice makes the world a better place!

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
