Evaluation of the Norwegian Volunteer Service : short and simplified version

The main conclusion from the recent evaluation of the Norwegian Volunteer Service is that there still is a need for volunteer assistance. NVS represents a valuable form of assistance with a large potential to reach the target groups of Norwegian aid. The Volunteer Service has a special profile and form of work which still is justified. But at the same time the evaluation suggests a series of reforms within NVS in order to improve and adjust to the needs of the day.
