Designed to promote reflection and better practices among the
prospective volunteers and organizers of travel-for-service
experiences, "International Volunteer Tourism" provides a
collection of narratives on short-term international volunteering
in Central America written by North American organizers, student
participants, and Central American partners. The authors explore
lessons learned from specific international service interventions
in Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Honduras, with some attention to
Costa Rica and Guatemala. The collection provides a nuanced,
contextualized, historically evolving portrait of the increasingly
popular practice of "voluntourism" with an eye toward pushing that
practice toward meaningful social change.
