Product Description

Product Description

"Lonely Planet's" volunteering handbook offers insights, advice and practical information on making a difference with your travels. It is arranged by type of experience (such as organised, structured and self-funding, and do-it-yourself) rather than simply listing organisations in alphabetical order. More than just a directory, this book uses personal accounts of volunteer experiences, reviews of volunteering organisations and images of travellers working and learning in communities in the developing world to inspire and motivate the reader to explore a unique kind of travel experience. It covers both formal, long- and short-term placements with volunteer organisations, and also provides information on how to plan, raise funds and implement your own volunteer experience, or even start your own grass roots charity. It provides a balanced look at the fun and the responsibilities involved in volunteering and tackles complex ethical issues with an intelligent, politically aware audience in mind. This book will lead the traveller well and truly off the beaten track.

3.0 out of 5 stars A big book of adverts, 2 Aug 2008
Bit disapointed with this book. I bought it for my sister when she went on her year out. I had a similar book when I was her age and it was great giving a range of options in order of price (some of them you actually got paid for!) I thought everything is this book looked like an advertisement for some project you could pay to work on and some of them where quite substantial amounts. At least it gives you n idea of where to start looking
