Scouts and UWA Research Project Summary of Volunteer Survey 2017

In 2016, UWA started a research project with Scouts to develop successful evidence-based practices and strategies to improve volunteer engagement and retention. For the development of these practices and strategies we started the annual volunteer engagement survey. This summary describes the results of the second Scouts volunteer engagement survey. The purpose of this summary is to 1) describe the results we found in this volunteer survey, 2) connect the findings from this survey to the findings from the previous survey, and 3) provide an update on the practices and strategies that are being developed based on the survey results. The summary of the previous survey can be found on the research project website: http://uwascoutsresearch.com/documentation/
