IVY 2026 Launch
On December 5, the world celebrates International Volunteer Day (IVD). This year’s #IVD2025 marks the global launch of the International Volunteer Year (IVY) 2026 and carries a powerful message: #EveryContributionMatters – reminding us that every act of service, big or small, can spark real change.
Through Resolution 78/127, the United Nations General Assembly calls on civil society, the private sector, and academia to actively observe #IVY2026 alongside Member States and UN system organizations. Let’s make 2026 the year we recognize and celebrate volunteers’ vital role in turning global goals into local action.
We invite you to join us in amplifying volunteer voices through the global social media campaign.
