Culture can be defined in numerous ways.

In the words of anthropologist E.B. Tylor, it is "that complex whole which includes knowledge, belief, art, morals, law, custom and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society." Alternatively, in a contemporary variant, "Culture is defined as a social domain that emphasizes the practices, discourses and material expressions, which, over time, express the continuities and discontinuities of social meaning of a life held in common.".

Volunteering is generally considered an altruistic activity where an individual or group provides services for no financial gain "to benefit another person, group or organization".

Volunteering is also renowned for skill development and is often intended to promote goodness or to improve human quality of life.

Volunteering may have positive benefits for the volunteer as well as for the person or community served.

It is also intended to make contacts for possible employment.

Many volunteers are specifically trained in the areas they work, such as medicine, education, or emergency rescue.

Others serve on an as-needed basis, such as in response to a natural disaster.

Recreation is an activity of leisure, leisure being discretionary time.

The "need to do something for recreation" is an essential element of human biology and psychology.

Recreational activities are often done for enjoyment, amusement, or pleasure and are considered to be "fun".

Heritage interpretation refers to all the ways in which information is communicated to visitors to an educational, natural or recreational site, such as a museum, park or science centre.

More specifically it is the communication of information about, or the explanation of, the nature, origin, and purpose of historical, natural, or cultural resources, objects, sites and phenomena using personal or non-personal methods.

Some international authorities in museology prefer the term mediation for the same concept, following usage in other European languages.
