Volunteering

ARE YOU A CHANGE-MAKER?

Volunteering offers countless advantages for everyone involved. In addition to the active contribution to organisations and communities, volunteers themselves benefit greatly from these activities through the skills they develop and the opportunities they encounter.
Promoting volunteering is one of the University of Coimbra’s priorities for its academic community, giving you the chance to leave a positive mark on the city and on the world.

Since 2020, volunteering at UC has brought together 40 partner institutions, 123 initiatives, and 1,700 registered volunteers, accounting for more than 2,200 hours of volunteer work carried out.
