Hey guys! This is the latest vlog of my adventure volunteering in Tanzania with worldpackers ✨ let me know any questions or anything you want to know about the experience 🫶🏼❤️
I don’t get why you have to show the kids like that, can’t you blur their faces at least? Who consented to them being exposed on the internet and showing their living spaces like something so personal like their bedrooms? What is that? How is that not exploitation?
You’ve clearly missed the whole purpose of the content so I’ll explain it for you. I’m not sure why you decided to assume there was no consent as if this whole content collaboration wasn’t planned. I had consent from the school, who in turn have consent from the parents (who know that volunteers are in the school and are fundraising). Unfortunately it’s very difficult to fundraise for a cause if you don’t actually show what you are fundraising for… have you noticed how they always show children on charity advertisements? Calling fundraising exploitation is just absurd and before you make those assumptions again, what exactly are you doing to help fundraise for other people? Are you flying to another country and donating your time and money to help them?
@@EmmaNicole Whole lot of assumptions going on here as well. I have you know I was one of those kids once, it’s not the only reason why I voice my opinion, I don’t have to go through it to empathize with someone but yes and I am sure that there are videos and pictures of me in much worse conditions and it’s very unsettling in my opinion. The lack of consideration of dignity for these kids is absurd. If you go inside a house of a kid in the western countries, film them in their bedroom and their entire living space most would think it’s distasteful no? Even showing kids faces in general we have started to realize it is not ideal to put on the internet because of the internet’s dangers. So how come that goes out of the window completely for African kids? I understand you want to show the conditions so that people understand why they should help but in my opinion I would’ve done differently starting by blurring those kids faces. And I have you know I do in fact help a lot the orphanage I was in and others as well. As well the asylum seekers/refugees in the European country I reside in, but I do not post anything online for the sake of everyone’s dignity but I go around and spread the word and present in secondary schools/ higher secondary/universities and NGOs all over to promote ethical volunteering. There’s so many ways to go about it and even then I’m not posting anything online for the internet to have forever. All kids faces are blurred even if I was given a go ahead. The people who give the go ahead sometimes are not tech literate enough to understand what repercussions these type of videos and pictures can have on the kids and the African community at large.
@@lizatizitagobey4747 and how foolish of you to think that those that gave consent are not tech illiterate. You are looking down on Africans by assuming that
