Promotional campaigns were organized widely. In Mongolia, the slogan was "Giving your time whatever your time of life"; in Brazil, it was "Fa?a parte", or participate; in Germany, "What I can do is priceless"; in Singapore, "Bring out the volunteer in you"; in Finland, "Big and small moments"; and in England, "It's your time". |
| The Year's official web site listed details of 122 launch events in more than 60 countries. The Philippines declared December Volunteer Month; South Africa and Thailand declared 2002 their national Year of Volunteering for Development. |
