Sinopsis
65 percent of organizations across Canada are facing a volunteer shortage and the decline is leaving organizations that depend on volunteerism struggling to move forward post COVID. As we wrap up National Volunteer Week that celebrates Canada's 24 million volunteers, we look at how the pandemic has created a critical shortage of volunteers, many are Zoomers who donate their time to help others. We reached Dr. Megan Conway, President and CEO of Volunteer Canada. AND How happy are you? Research shows its critical to our overall well being, affecting everything from our physical health, our relationships and even our productivity at work. In recent years, Canada has been consistently ranked as one of the happiest countries in the world. This year, of the 137 countries ranked, Canada placed No. 13, two positions higher than the United States. Libby Znaimer spoke with the creator of the most popular course in Harvards history - the happiness course - Dr Tal Ben-Shahar.
