Always looking to help volunteer for human rights when traveling.

I have met many other tourists in my travels who also do the same -- sometimes traveling half-way across the world to a country exclusively for such work, spending 90-100% of their time volunteering for an NGO. Unfortunately, not many of these NGOs are listed on wikivoyage, so many travelers don't even know what solidarity opportunities exist.

Solidarity Tourism is a wonderful way to travel. You get to deeply understand the politics of a region and develop strong relationships with locals struggling to attain universal human rights.

My goal is to add work/volunteer opportunities to wikivoyage for other travelers to find such enriching opportunities in their travels.
