THE VOLUNTEER MATCHING INITIATIVE
This is a program focused on matching both volunteers and organizations who are in need of individual skills, expertise and experience.
About this Initiative
The initiative aims to promote sustainable tourism by connecting travelers with responsible organizations, allowing them to engage in meaningful volunteer experiences and make a positive impact in the destinations they visit.
The initiative involves skill sharing, where volunteers bring their unique skills and knowledge to support local communities and organizations in their efforts to achieve the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The initiative seeks to foster sustainable development and promote responsible tourism practices by encouraging volunteers to share their expertise and engage in hands-on volunteer work.

Responsible volunteering
This involves making informed and ethical decisions when choosing to volunteer your time and resources. It is important to carefully research the organizations and causes you are interested in supporting, and to consider the potential impact of your involvement.
- Mission and values: Make sure the organization’s mission and values align with your own.
- Transparency: Look for organizations that are open and transparent about their operations and finances.
- Impact: Consider the potential impact of your involvement on the community or cause you are supporting.
- Cultural sensitivity: Be mindful of the potential cultural implications of your involvement, and make sure the organization is respectful of local customs and traditions.
- Self-sufficiency: Avoid organizations that rely on volunteer labor to sustain their operations, and instead look for organizations that work to empower local communities and promote self-sufficiency.
Once you have chosen an organization to volunteer with, it is important to follow these dos and don’ts:
- Do respect the local culture and customs.
- Do listen to and respect the perspectives of the community members you are working with.
- Don’t impose your own beliefs or solutions on the community.
- Don’t exploit or take advantage of the community for personal gain or publicity.
