Community Participation in Mangalore
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
A stark gap exists between the low rate of volunteering and the high level of home-based care in Mangalore. While only 10.7% of people volunteer, far more residents provide unpaid care compared to the national average. This creates a community profile where support is focused heavily on the home rather than on wider local organisations.
