Sažetak
This paper discusses the possibility of acquiring human and social capital by participating in volunteer activities. Volunteering is especially observed from the point of view of Bourdieu's understanding of capital, whereby the voluntary sector is understood as a social field and placed in a wider social context. After the conceptual determinations of civil society, volunteering and human and social capital are presented, an overview of the basic concepts and approaches to the research of human and social capital is given, and the effect of volunteering on their acquisition is emphasized. In particular, opportunities for volunteering, in addition to lifelong informal learning, are also associated with informal learning, the prevalence of which during volunteer activities enriches free time and develops volunteers' lifestyles, i.e., their capacities for community life. Given the array of benefits for volunteers and the community, which are located within the development of human and social capital, this paper emphasizes the development of competencies for employability, which is preceded by the readiness to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for the knowledge society, which is developed through volunteering.
