ESF Galicia in the 2011 Area Outreach

On Saturday February 19, 2011 celebrated in Corunna a new edition of Area Outreach 2011 held at the Palace of Exhibitions and Fairs of Corunna (Palexco).

At the event attended by a large cast of social organizations of the city, as NGOs or organizations the protagonist is voluntary. The presence of all of them turned the meeting in a very plural and with the activities organized by City Hall of La Coruña (organizer) can conclude that the Area Outreach 2011 was a success because it is worth mentioning that, although morning turnout was better scarce in the afternoon, he was considerably increased the number of participants.

So were many people who visited the booth ESF Galicia to become interested in the association and shared tryptic "About Us" , manifestos of the Sahara, triptychs of "trust" plates and even as gifts to people who participated in some the proposed activities: the Ecological Footprint and activities related to recycling that was the most success came from the participants. In case of ESF Galicia , the meeting was to:

• To publicize ESF Galicia as an association, the activities that take place through our materials ( activities, games ...).
• attract new volunteers.
• awareness about various topics.
• Interact with other NGOs and organizations.
• Visibilizarse volunteering in the social city of La Coruna and before public authorities.

Regarding internal organization, one should mention the following: the goal preseguir this type of event is attended by persons of all groups of the thirst, so that the distribution of hours of volunteers is more equitable , which was not achieved on this occasion also percibiuse little involvement and interest in volunteering Headquarters Coruña in this event, which could be subject to debate in the forthcoming Meeting of thirst or even mailing lists, because given the circumstances, the following prantexanse question:

• Why do people volunteer not just engage in this kind of events?
• It is possible that volunteers do not believe in the usefulness of such an event?
• worth ESF Galicia participate in these events?

The Office Coordinator who suscribe these lines, let me make clear his opinion about this, because it considers that a body like ESF Galicia must not miss these opportunities that are offered to meet goals that are mentioned in the first lines of this blog entry. At the same time, highlight and agraceder participation and involvement of the volunteers rather were part of the stand and it was thanks to them, which can Levers out the event.
