Во многих странах мира волонтёрство уже давно получило широкое
распространение. В социальном развитии его роль была высоко оценена на международном
уровне. Именно поэтому ресурс добровольчества все чаще становится объектом
исследований в области социологии, педагогики, психологии, права, а теперь еще и
туризма. Волонтёрская деятельность создает возможности для социально активной
молодежи помочь другим, найти поддержку и ощутить общественную ценность
выполняемой ими работы, реализовать свой потенциал, получить определённые
жизненные навыки, сформировать эффективный стиль жизни. В этом контексте стоит
обратить внимание на современное состояние и перспективы развития именно
туристического волонтёрского движения.
