Leisure that inspires change: Volunteering for a sustainable future
On April 16, 2026, the World Leisure Organization will proudly celebrate the sixth edition of World Leisure Day (WL Day), shining a spotlight on the theme “Leisure that inspires change: Volunteering for a sustainable future.”
Leisure is more than a moment of pause—it is a powerful catalyst for active citizenship, social commitment, and community resilience. Through volunteering, leisure becomes a force that empowers individuals, strengthens communities, and contributes to a more equitable and sustainable world.
