Summary/Abstract: In this paper, in an attempt to develop an overview, the author strives to present international standards on volunteering. Beside international standards, different systems in EU member states were presented as well as reasons for their different development. Law on volunteering was adopted in Serbia in 2010. However, civil society organizations raised objections on specific articles and solutions in the Law. Having that in mind, author referred to the civil sector remarks and pointed comparative legal solutions and models of regulating these issues in other countries. This paper could serve as a starting point of the discussion about the need for amendments to the existing Law on Volunteering.
