Community Participation in Imanpa

How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.

A massive gap exists between Imanpa and the rest of the country in how people contribute to their community. While far more residents provide unpaid care for children than the national figure, very few people here volunteer their time. This creates a community profile where home-based care is common but formal volunteering is rare.
