Two of Volunteering Australia's foundation documents, The Definition and Principles of Volunteering and the Volunteer Rights and Volunteer Checklist have been translated into the 16 most used languages in Australia and are available to download for free. The Definition and Principles of Volunteering provides a definition of formal volunteering and its underpinning principles, and the Volunteer Rights and Volunteer Checklist is an overview of volunteers' rights and some important points for volunteers to check off with their organisation before volunteering. These are important documents that all volunteers should have access to.
