In addition, participants were encouraged to share their experiences on volunteering through group work and practical activities.

In his speech at the workshop, Süleyman Arslantaş stated that the widespread awareness of volunteering will increase social solidarity and contribute to the establishment of a stronger social bond between individuals. At the end of the event, Meram DOSD volunteers thanked Süleyman Arslantaş for organising the event, wishing to continue such activities with different projects.
