Short summary:
This position paper has been produced by young participants and International Voluntary Service (IVS) organisations from all regions of the world under the Decolonise IVS! project to reflect on concepts around solidarity and decolonisation and the changes that are needed for this. In this document, we offer a critical reflection on the narratives we use as IVS organisations to promote international volunteering, and on the neo-colonial patterns we tend to reproduce through our communication.
