Abstract
The objectives of this research were to complete a review of relevant Irish and international literature in order to inform the researcher of possible benefits of and barriers to volunteering for migrants. The objectives of this research were to build upon existing literature and highlight any gaps in the literature by conducting semi-structured interviews with five migrants, who are currently in or have completed a volunteering role. Therefore, this research explores such benefits of voluntary work on migrants and also explores some of the barriers that prevent them from partaking in voluntary work, from the migrants’ perspectives.
