The demand for higher levels of citizenship participation is becoming a common interest of researchers from several disciplines. At the same time, international institutions promote and facilitate it. The purpose of the present paper is to put on record this sensibility in Europe and specifically Spain. Some references to volunteerism as a way of promoting social participation are pointed out in the text, and their educational potentialities are analysed. The description of several educational initiatives carried out in Spain show opportunities for a further coordination between volunteerism and the formal educational community
