In the last few decades, this type of tourism has grown fast, boosting travellers’ personal development and fostering a transformational experience. This research aims to examine the key motives to engage in voluntourism. PLSSEM findings (n = 318) indicate that there are two major influencers on volunteer tourism motivation: the uniqueness of the experience and altruistic behaviour. By doing so, this research identifies the key drivers to motivate people on doing this type of tourism. Based on our conclusions, we present important implications for academics, volunteer tourism companies and tour operators.Pinto, Diego CostaRUNSilva, Marina Chavez Duarte2021-11-18T15:35:45Z2021-11-082021-11-08T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/127909TID:202791254enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:07:42Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/127909Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:46:13.913631Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
