摘要:Environmental volunteerism is an example of prosocial behavior and pro-environmental behavior confluence. The objective was to characterize the volunteer in the organization: thematic categories of speech, and functions of volunteering. The Volunteer Function Inventory (VFI) was applied to four volunteers and semi-structured interviews were conducted with three of them. Four thematic axis were identified: characteristics and profile of volunteering, volunteer organization, environmental crisis and society perception. The VFI has identified similarities and differences regarding gender and age. The importance of monetary rewarding for the insertion and maintenance of volunteerism is discussed. Suggestions are provided for managers and for future research.
