It has been argued that much of international medical volunteering is done for
the wrong reasons, in that local people serve as a means to meet volunteers'
needs, or for the right reasons but ignorance and ill-preparedness harm the
intended beneficiaries, often without volunteers' grasp of the damage caused. The
literature on ethical concerns in medical volunteering has grown tremendously
over the last years highlighting the need for appropriate guidelines. These same
concerns, however, and an appreciation of the reasons why current aid paradigms
are flawed, can serve as indicators on how to change existing practices to ensure
a better outcome for those who are in need of help. Such paradigm change
envisages medical assistance in the spirit of solidarity, social justice,
equality, and collegial collaboration.
