Those bright young things might rattle on about democracy but how much voice should they have unless or or until they have a real stake in the project. Volunteer labour is critical to projects finding their feet in the new economy. But volunteers should not be seeking to steer those projects, instead they should be watching and learning and appreciating their lack of responsibility.
