VOLUNTEERING AS A MECHANISM OF SOCIO-PEDAGOGICAL WORK AND YOUTH SOCIAL POLICY OF THE STATE UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF RISK

Due to transformational processes in Russian society, the riskogenicity of the environment is increasing. Risk is becoming an integral and ineradicable component of human life, especially youth. One of the main tasks of the state is to reduce and minimize risks in society. The authors set a target to consider volunteering as a mechanism of socio-pedagogical work and the youth social policy of the state in conditions of risk. Volunteering is considered as a moral support and a social guideline that helps youth organize and fulfill themselves. Socio-pedagogical work on involving youth in volunteer activities is built in the framework of such areas as health, environment, preventive, historical, leisure and social. Being engaged in volunteering in these areas, young people form charity, responsibility for themselves and their assigned work, receptivity to the problems of another person and society, in general, a sense of self-esteem and humane attitude to people and society.
