Volunteering and Prosocial Behaviour

 The study wants to put in relation prosocial behaviour with 
well-being. The study’s participants were selected from various 
volunteering groups, involved in student organisations in Romania and 
outside of it. The data regarding one’s own perception of prosocial 
behaviour and well-being was gathered during the pandemic’s first week 
and after 8 weeks, but the volunteers’ activity was tracked in the months 
that followed. This led to acknowledging that their activities diversified in 
this field and the participants’ number in their groups grew bigger. 
Finding a meaning based on our prosocial behaviours brings benefits in 
the social dynamic, diminishes the feeling of loneliness, and leads to 
optimising our well-being.
