Theme: Covid-19 - Will the Pandemic Break or Make Overseas Volunteering

COVID-19 has radically transformed the world – from the way we go about our daily lives, to the way we work and travel. Prior to the pandemic, overseas volunteering was on the rise but it came to a halt when countries closed their borders and international travel was ceased. Looking at how long it might take for non-essential travel to resume, the pandemic pushes us to think about the future of overseas volunteering. Would this mark the end of overseas volunteering, or can we re-invent this idea of volunteering entirely?
