Synopsis "Modern Day Slavery and Orphanage Tourism"

Orphanage tourism is the practice, in less developed contexts, where tourist interactions with "orphaned" children are central to traveller itineraries and experience making. While being attractive to the desire of tourists and volunteers to "do good" while travelling, underlining orphanage tourism is the fact that the vast majority of children (over 80%) in orphanage institutions are not orphans. Instead they are the victims of intentional attempts by poor families to give children access to education opportunities, and consistent and reliable nutrition. However, such desires are easily exploited, and there are limited means by which families are able to ascertain the veracity around whether children are definitely receiving the care they have been promised. Orphanages themselves are very often for-profit enterprises, where the commodification of good intentions cycle begins and becomes embedded in the tourism supply chain where children become attractions and the focus of tourist consumption, and orphanages become sites of tourism production.
