Joint Association Committees
Hong Kong Council of Volunteering ("HKCOV") is a joint committee established in 2004 by AVS in conjunction with organizations from various sectors, with a view to build a cross-sectoral platform for exchange and collaboration to cultivate broader participation in volunteering. It serves to advise on the promotion and development of volunteerism in Hong Kong; to consider measures conducive to a favourable environment of volunteering; and to review the international development of volunteering and Hong Kong’s participation in such development. Currently, the HKCOV has 18 member organizations.
The Council kicked off the Professional Volunteer Service Accreditation Programme ("PVSA") in 2005 together with its member organizations and AVS to commend professionals and senior executives for contributing their professional knowledge and skills in serving the community.
