In this context paper, we explore how community-based volunteering building upon existing social
structures and practices can foster both resilience to crisis and sustainable development. The
connection between volunteering and community resilience is now in sharper focus than ever due
to the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 has highlighted how communities come together to support
each other at times of crisis, through the emergence of organised and spontaneous volunteering to
help people to protect themselves from the coronavirus disease and get through the tough social and
economic measures put in place to contain it.

The current pandemic presents us all with a unique challenge. Society at large is facing a crisis that we did
not prepare for and is fraught with many challenges both personal and public. The policy of physical
distancing is causing feelings of abject loneliness amongst many elderly citizens exacerbated by the
cancelling of all their social clubs and leisure activities. As volunteers you have an opportunity to express
caring, concern and to convey the important message that they “are not alone.” In addition, your meeting
is an occasion to show respect and appreciation for the elderly, curiosity and interest in their personal
history and experiences as well as to share your own experiences, outlook and pursuits.
