Disclosed is a volume hologram optical recording medium having a recording layer with low moisture absorption. Specifically disclosed is a volume hologram optical recording medium having a multi-layer structure including a transparent substrate and a recording layer. The recording layer contains a resin matrix (A) and/or a resin matrix (B) and a photosensitive compound (C). The resin matrix (A) is obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate (A1) and a polyol (A2) having a -(C=O)O- group and/or a -O(C=O)O- group, while the resin matrix (B) is obtained by reacting an epoxy compound (B1) having two or more epoxy groups in one molecule and a curing agent (B2). In addition, the recording layer has a moisture absorption rate of 1.5 wt% or less.
