Book State Managed International Voluntary Service

Download or read book State Managed International Voluntary Service written by Yasunobu Okabe and published by Springer. This book was released on 2024-10-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book addresses two issues of state-managed international voluntary service (SMIVS)—its contributions and advantages/disadvantages—by the case study of Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers (JOCV). Until now, the literature has given little attention to SMIVS and Asian international voluntary service (IVS). Proposing the concept of SMIVS, this is the first book in English to focus on JOCV and IVS managed by the Japanese government. The book is organized into two parts. In Part I, the authors, including scholars, former volunteers, and practitioners, explore the contributions of JOCV to the development in host communities, personal and professional development of volunteers, and Japanese civil society. In Part II, the authors analyze how JOCV creates advantages such as multilevel support by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), a Japanese government aid agency, and disadvantages such as the weak expertise of volunteers. The authors’ theoretical approaches cover capacity development, social capital, gift theory, and institutional theory, and their methodologies include statistical analysis of survey data, interview-based anthropological interpretation, and single/comparative case study. This combination of multiple approaches and methodologies is a strong feature of the study reported here. Thanks to state management, as the book demonstrates, JOCV can facilitate mutual benefits between volunteers and host communities, enhancing the human capital of the former and contributing to the socioeconomic development of the latter. It also shows that Japanese volunteers blend into host communities well, respecting and learning their social values and perspectives. This achievement is accomplished to the extent that collaborative and equal interpersonal relationships are nurtured between the volunteers and local people, including counterparts. Thus, this book helps to reduce inequality and stereotypes in IVS, with implications for other state-managed IVS.

Book excerpt: Preface 2012 edition: The United States Code is the official codification of the general and permanent laws of the United States. The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2012 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Twelfth Congress, Second session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 15, 2013. It does not include laws of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, First session, enacted between January 3, 2013, the date it convened, and January 15, 2013. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2012 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 26 of the 51 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 USC 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2012 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Ralph V. Seep, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Printing Office. -- John. A. Boehner, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Washington, D.C., January 15, 2013--Page VII.

Download or read book T Kit No 5 International voluntary service written by Tony Geudens and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1998, the Council of Europe and the European Commission decided to take common action in the field of youth. Both institutions initiated a partnership agreement with the aim "to promote active European citizenship and civil society by giving impetus to the training of youth leaders and youth workers working within a European dimension". In 2003, additional agreements were signed in the fields of "youth research" and "Euro-Mediterranean youth co-operation". Since 2005, the partnership between the European Commission and the Council of Europe in the field of youth activities has focused on the following topics: European citizenship, human rights education and intercultural dialogue, quality and recognition of youth work and training, better understanding and knowledge of youth and youth policy development. The partnership between the European Commission and the Council of Europe in the field of youth brings together the two institutions' experience in non-formal education, youth policy, youth research and youth work practice. Activities organised within its framework gather representatives of those areas who share their knowledge and experience for the benefit of enhancing evidence-based policy, practice, quality and recognition of youth work and training. Results and other material are made available on the partnership website (http://youth-partnership-eu.coe.int) and in various publications, including the Training Kits (T-Kits). T-Kits are thematic publications written by experienced youth trainers and experts and constitute easy-to-use handbooks for educational activities. All activities and publications enhance the exchange of experience and good practice between the actors involved and contribute to the implementation of the political objectives of both partner institutions.
