BCN Newsletter May-June 2016

Better Care Network

This issue of the BCN newsletter focuses on “orphanage” voluntourism and highlights research and other publications on tourism and volunteering in children's residential care centers (or "orphanages”), including activities, updates, and new resources from the Better Volunteering Better Care Initiative and its members, as well as other relevant publications. The BVBC initiative was particularly active in the months of May and June with a “blogging blitz” and campaign to #StopOrphanTrips. The newsletter also highlights some of the new research on care related issues, as well as a number of tools, news, initiatives, and reports by organizations working on children's care.
