Are volunteer/missions trips ethical? Can they be conducted in a way that benefits both communities and participants? Can the stories we tell foster agency and empowerment?
I answer all these questions and more in my workshops for volunteer and missions teams.
I provide a variety of trainings and workshops for those engaging in short-term international work, including orientation, chats while in the field, and debriefs. I have a developed a fabulous curriculum designed to walk together with volunteers through topics of ethical missions, cross-cultural engagement, and storytelling.
Are you sending or hosting a team for short-term volunteer work? Let me help you deepen their impact in a way that's healthy, sustainable, and ethical for participant and host community.
