The key role of the FIVB
Development Department is to monitor and further the progress of
Volleyball on all continents.
Within the vicinity of their geographical area, Development
Centres intensify international cooperation in
Volleyball and Beach Volleyball, improve the professional
level and performance of these two disciplines, as well as
the technical and administrative structures of Volleyball
Associations in the surrounding countries.

other programmes
approved by the FIVB and by providing informative instructions
