We will offer voluntourism, fun, and great adventure with like-minded travellers. |
Sallie Grayson, programme director at People and Places, believes voluntourism can be effective if managed responsibly. |
The voluntourism guidelines state that volunteer programs can be part of for-profit operations so long as the core objective is to meet the needs of the local community. |
Some of these programs were found on a website called Go Overseas, which is dedicated to listing and rating different voluntourism programs. |
Particularly when traveling internationally, the biggest expense with voluntourism is getting there. |
Trips to destinations all over the world are adding community restoration projects, but voluntourism in New Orleans isn't limited to building homes with Habitat for Humanity. |
