För dig själv eller andra? : En studie om det är egoistiskt att vara med i en ideell förening.Jonsson, Ulrika, Pettersson, Gunilla January 2015 (has links)
Voluntary work - why? There are many people who work as volunteers within different organizations and we have chosen to study an organization that aims to help women and girls around the world. The members give their time and dedication in order to give other people a better life. The purpose of the study is to examine the factors that motivate people to join the organization. When we heard about the organization the first time we wondered if the volunteers were there to help others, or to have something to do for themselves. We chose to conduct a survey of the selected organization and have grouped the results according to different factors. One grouping is how long they have been members. Another is if there is a difference between two groups, where one is more comitted to voluntary work in their own neighborhood compared to those who are not. We have used altrusim, egoism and motivation as key concepts för understanding and analyzing our results. We have come to the conclusion that there are differences between different groups of why they are in this organization. One of the main reasons for all groups is that they truly want to help women and girls around the world. The social aspects of being in a group, to be on activities was not as high on the list as we first anticipated.

Fri vilja eller tradition? : Prästrespektive i den prästerliga kulturenSivhed, Elna January 2014 (has links)
The purpose of the study was to investigate, using data from the sacerdotal culture, t h espouses of five priests. The main questions were: How does the priestly calling affect thespouse? Do the spouses involve themselves with voluntary work? Do the spouses feel thecongregation have expectations? Do the female and male answers differ?The sacerdotal culture has consisted of several elements. The main element is the priest’scalling for his work. As far as the spouse is concerned within the congregation, the spouseshave been seen as necessary for voluntary work. The congregation has also expected thespouse to act in a certain way and to undertake certain tasks.How the five informants feel about and react to the sacerdotal culture is focus for this study.The study shows that the sacerdotal culture is still strong today and it is something that thespouses take into account. They can choose not to participate but that might involve, forinstance, having to live somewhere else. The study found that the calling affects the femaleinformants, but not so much the males. The amount of participation varies from spouse tospouse and is a matter of their own choice. Expectations can also vary and participation inthe congregation can create higher expectations.

Som medsyster, eller som medarbetare? : - En kvalitativ studie om emotionellt arbete i en kvinnosolidarisk ideell föreningAlhällen, Olivia, Klingberg, Daniela January 2018 (has links)
Hochschild's study of emotional labour, how emotions are handled in wage work involving interaction with others, was the starting point for emotional labour studies. However, previous research on emotional labour in the non-profit sector is rather limited. Therefore, this study aims to inquire how emotion labour is expressed in a voluntary work carried out exclusively by women. Furthermore, the study intends to determine whether the boundary between acting professionally and acting personally tends to become more diffuse in voluntary work. The study is based on interviews with six volunteers currently working at Kvinnohuset and the ambition has been to successfully capture their experiences about how emotional labour is managed by them during their voluntary work. The study shows that the volunteers at Kvinnohuset work with emotional labour in a transboundary manner, which means that they commute between acting professionally and personally in order to maintain the purpose and culture of the Kvinnohuset, which is important for the organization to progress and relationships to flourish. In addition to this, the study shows that the existing definition of emotional labour does not correspond to the emotional labour that can be found at Kvinnohuset. Through an elaborated model of similarities and differences between how emotional labour is handled in wage work and in the non-profit sector, we have proposed a more precise definition of emotional labour in the non-profit sector, which is emotional procreation.

Ideellt arbete på kvinnojourer : volontärers upplevelse av motivation och emotionell påverkanMavi, Dilan, Pettersson, Sofia January 2022 (has links)
Våldsutsatta kvinnor kan vända sig till kvinnojourer för att söka hjälp, stöd och skydd. Där arbetar kvinnor som har en anställning men även kvinnor som arbetar ideellt. Att arbeta med människor kan upplevas emotionellt påfrestande. Syftet med studien är att undersöka vad som motiverar kvinnor att arbeta ideellt på kvinnojourer, samt om de upplever emotionell påverkan till följd av arbetet med våldsutsatta kvinnor. Semistrukturerade intervjuer med 12 ideellt arbetande kvinnor genomfördes, som sedan analyserades med tematiskanalys. Resultatet påvisade viljan att göra något meningsfullt, engagemanget i samhällsfrågan våld mot kvinnor och att tro på framtiden motiverar till ideellt arbete på kvinnojourer. Känslor till följd av uppdraget påvisades vara styrkan i gemenskapen, känsla av frustration och otillräcklighet samt känslan av att uppdraget är en större känslomässig vinst än förlust. Resultat av studien kan bidra till att motivera flera kvinnor att arbeta ideellt och främja välbefinnandet på arbetsplatser vid möten med våldsutsatta.

"Det ger någon slags mening i vardagen" : En kulturanalytisk studie om volontärers upplevelser av att arbeta med flyktingar / A Meaningful Work : A cultural analysis of Swedish voluntary workers' experiences of their engagement with refugeesLiliequist, Christian January 2016 (has links)
Abstract of “A meaningful work” The aim of this paper is to make a cultural analysis of Swedish voluntary workers’ experiences of their engagement with refugees during the fall and winter of 2015/2016. I have interviewed eight people between the age of 19 and 61 with experiences from working as volunteers with refugees. In addition to the interviews, I have conducted a participant observation on a refugee accommodation. I have highlighted interesting themes brought up by the informants during the interviews. These themes have been further analyzed from the theoretical concepts of self-identity, class and gender. As the results show, my informants have had different motives and driving forces for engaging as volunteers, depending on their habitus and self-identities. For many the volunteer work fulfilled an important social aspect in their life. As volunteers they also got first hand information about the refugee situation, which they could pass on to their environment. One of my informants had more negative experiences than the others. She experienced a lot of critique for her engagement, which partly was because of her norm-breaking leader position as a black, young woman. Through my participant observation I got to experience the gloomy facilities of a refugee accommodation located in a distant, secluded environment. But I also experienced the informants’ joy when playing with the kids, and how their engagement created a more cheerful atmosphere.

Previous issue date: 2010-10-20 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The dissertation deals with ethical aspects related to the reproduction of religious
values, in nature and origin, of the volunteer social worker. Is based on Marxist
tradition of Social Work in Brazil with regards to the development of the Political-
Ethical Professional Project. Presents the connections between the profession s
theoretical scope and the contemporary volunteering socio-historical assumptions,
trying to rationalize the controversial aspects resulting in the reality revelation. Offers
support for a secular debate about the charity s moral values in the situations that
involves volunteer social work, as well as indicates for further studies on ethical
grounds in face of the work category in contemporary capitalism. It presents
qualitative research matured as result of previous studies about the relationship
between the profession and the religious institutions, and the Social Work learner s
profile that involves the professional training and religiosity. This research analyses,
lastly, the delineate tints of the profession practiced without payment, addressing its
interfaces with the work s precariousness, with the social problems depoliticization in
capitalist society and the ethical and political praxis of social worker s complexities / A presente dissertação de mestrado trata de aspectos da ética relacionados à
reprodução de valores de cunho e origem religiosos na atuação voluntária do
assistente social. Ancora-se na tradição marxista do arcabouço teórico do Serviço
Social brasileiro no que compete ao desenvolvimento do Projeto Ético-Político
Profissional. Apresenta as conexões existentes entre o âmbito teórico da profissão e
os pressupostos sócio-históricos do voluntariado contemporâneo, buscando
racionalizar sua polêmica e objetivando a revelação da realidade. Oferece subsídios
para um debate laico acerca da presença do valor moral da caridade na conjuntura
que envolve o trabalho voluntário no Serviço Social, bem como sinaliza para o
aprofundamento de estudos sobre fundamentos éticos em face da categoria trabalho
no capitalismo contemporâneo. Apresenta pesquisa qualitativa amadurecida em
decorrência de estudos anteriores sobre a relação da profissão com instituições
religiosas e do perfil do formando em Serviço Social acerca do âmbito que envolve
formação profissional e religiosidade. Revela, por fim, as matizes que delineiam a
profissão exercida sem assalariamento, abordando suas interfaces com a
precarização do trabalho, com a despolitização da questão social na sociedade
capitalista e com as complexidades da práxis ético-política do assistente social

Volunteer that makes a difference or difference that makes a volunteer? : A study on the apprehension of roles and functions of European volunteers in GhanaSöderberg, Frida January 2010 (has links)
Westerners have for centuries been present in Africa with different motives. The most recent phenomenon is young volunteers that, instead of being tourists in a normal sense, go to the continent to work within organizations as for example teachers. This study, where the empirical material is based on qualitative interviews done with twelve European volunteers during a minor field study in Ghana, aims to examine what apprehension the volunteers have of their role and function. To create an understanding for the purpose, questions on the meaning of the concept of volunteering, motives and outcomes of the volunteering experience as well as the view of westerners and Ghanaians have been asked. In the light of postcolonialism and volunteer tourism, the study shows a number of factors that explains motives and the understanding of the concept, with a focus on the learning and growth of the volunteer. The outcome circles around knowledge on development issues and aid work as well as being able to have an impact on Ghanaians and development in Ghana. The volunteers also show revulsion from other westerners (that want to “help” and have a “colonial” behavior) and Ghanaians, but at the same time they prefer to spend time with westerners. The volunteers’ apprehension of their role and function is found to be bipartite; expressed is that they are in Ghana to experience and to learn, but understood is also that they see it as their task to spread their view of life, help the locals and contribute to development. A possible explanation to this contradiction might be that the volunteers, grown up in a time where they have been taught “how they should think” about “Us” and “Them”, distance themselves from everything that disaffirm their belief. However, at the same time they are deeply influenced by the western society’s way of focusing on differences between people, differences with signatures such as “developed” and “underdeveloped”. It creates a complexity of knowing something but not being able to live by it. / Med en historisk tillbakablick ser man att västerlänningar länge och med olika motiv har varit närvarande i Afrika. De senaste i raden är unga volontärer som, istället för att vara turist i vanlig bemärkelse, åker till kontinenten för att arbeta inom organisationer som till exempel lärare. Denna studie, vars empiriska material bygger på en fältstudie i Ghana där kvalitativa intervjuer gjorts med tolv europeiska volontärer, syftar till att undersöka vilken förståelse volontärerna har av sin roll och funktion. För att skapa en idé kring syftet har frågor kring volontärkonceptets betydelse, motiv och effekter av volontärupplevelsen samt synen på västerlänningar och ghaneser ställts. I ljuset av postkolonialism och volontär turism visar studien på ett antal faktorer som förklarar motiv och volontärkonceptets betydelse, med fokus kring vikten av volontärens läroprocess och mognad. Effekterna handlar om kunskap kring utvecklingsfrågor och biståndsarbete samt en upplevelse av att kunna påverka ghaneser och utvecklingen i Ghana. De visar också på avståndstagande från både västerlänningar (som vill ”hjälpa” och har ”kolonialt” beteende) och ghaneser, samtidigt som de helst umgås med de förra. Volontärernas förståelse av sin roll och funktion upplevs tvådelad; uttryckt förstås den som någon som är i Ghana för att uppleva och lära sig, men det utläses också att de ser som sin uppgift att sprida sin livssyn, hjälpa lokalbefolkningen och medverka till utveckling. En möjlig förklaring till denna motsägelsefullhet kan vara att volontärerna, uppväxta i en tid där de lärt sig ”hur de ska tänka” om ”Vi” och ”Dem”, tar avstånd från allt som motsäger den synen men samtidigt är de också djupt påverkade av det västerländska samhällets fokus på skillnader mellan folk, skillnader med förtecken så som ”utvecklade” och ”underutvecklade”. Det skapar en komplexitet av att vara medveten om något men inte kunna leva efter det.
