Inhaltsangabe

Generation NGO: a generation of young professionals who are actively engaged in global issues, who venture overseas to work in international development. What happens when they leave their comfortable homes to journey to refugee camps or war zones in the name of "development," and then return home? These are their stories.

Punctuated by the contributors' vital honesty and reflexivity, Generation NGO presents as many questions as it does answers.
