It is analysed the evolution of the manifestation of the pro-social behaviour with age and enrichment of the social environment where the young people are active, differences of manifestation according to the gender of the subjects, as well as factors that can influence their participation in activities beneficial for the community. The results are interpreted from the psychological point of view, and offer a base to support the civic education and the stimulation of the actions of volunteering as strategies of social influence, where young people can generate change and can interfere in the sense of the development of the community they belong to.
