Voluntary Action Program, developed since 2004, whereby all Copel employees have the possibility to use, on a voluntary and spontaneous basis, up to 8 hours of their professional work time, every two months, for carrying out social action or community interest activities.
Volunteering at Copel comprehends themes such as human rights, education, inclusion, health, environment, sustainability, among others, aligned to commitments voluntarily assumed by Copel, such as the Global Compact and the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development of the United Nations, summarized into 17 Sustainable Development Goals – ODS, with 169 targets.
Copel registers, through a Permanent Public Call, since 2016, Social Institutions, Education Institutions and Nongovernmental Organizations (NGOs), nonprofit entities, for the purpose of participating in volunteering activities, events, fairs, among others.
You can learn more about Copel’s volunteering work in the series of videos “Are to change your world”.
