Our CEE, entitled “Exploring Voluntourism,” was a two hour presentation and discussion of the dangers of unsustainable volunteer work. Within our community, we identified a strong interest in topics relating to sustainable missions, volunteering partnerships, and proactive citizenship but could find few local resources. We prepared for our event by researching the effects of various types of volunteer work, collecting interview information about positive service sites around the world, and talking to our institution’s faculty and staff about their ideas to share at the event. In order to market for our event, we contacted religious groups in the area and spread the word through local contacts. On campus, we marketed through fliers, faculty and staff contacts, and communication with Service Learning classes. The event consisted of sharing our research through a multimedia presentation in an interactive lecture. We defined the problems that experts see with specific types of service that creates unsustainable communities, offered examples of local and international service partnerships, and facilitated a conversation about how to apply this new information to our service. We invited local coffee distributors who have sustainable business relationships with farmers in Guatemala and Costa Rica to donate their coffee and share their healthy partnership stories. In order to encourage discussion, we prepared questions and mixed up the groups sitting at each table to relate sustainable volunteering to our mission work, service, and traveling abroad. In order to supply our community with resources and further educational materials, we compiled a packet of research, further reading suggestions, and cultural rubrics. The rubrics, which we created based upon our research, are resources to help travelers and volunteers become more cognizant of the geography and cultural climates of the countries to which they travel. After we gave those in attendance the resource packet, we concluded our event by casually gathering feedback. We answered questions, and gathered that our participants felt empowered, educated, and more interested in the topic at hand.
