Volunteering activities offer students the opportunity to participate in diverse community service initiatives, allowing them to contribute positively to the university and the local community, and develop a sense of social responsibility. These activities are framed on experiential learning and service-learning methodologies, where the students cultivate and enhance their sense of citizenship and values by becoming actively involved in projects aimed at improving the quality of life in society.
