Is going on a medical mission trip for two weeks really helping people? Where does the money spent on these trips go? How do we pick an ethical organization? Should I just go on vacation instead? On this episode, we discuss all of these questions about voluntourism and so much more with Emily Scott, RN. We talk about the differences between impact and intent, the hierarchy of medical organizations, and the ethics around whether or not doing anything is better than doing nothing at all.
