타임뱅크 방식의 자원봉사 활동에 참여한 자원봉사 관리자의 참여경험에 관한 연구

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to understand the perception of volunteer activities and management by analyzing the participation experiences of volunteer managers who participated in the Seoul Volunteer Center's community-based volunteer well-being network project created by applying the time bank method. As a research method, qualitative content analysis was used through in-depth interviews with six volunteer managers who participated in the ‘Hello Network Project’ to which the time bank operation method was applied at the Seoul Volunteer Center. Participation experiences of volunteer managers fall into four categories: adaptation to changes in the volunteering environment, volunteering with an interactive exchange process, linkage strategy to meet the needs of the field, and confirmation of practical exchange results. Volunteer managers consider the participation experience of the time bank method as a challenge to form a new type of volunteer work and a process of recognizing the detailed process.
