Resumo

O compromisso do turismo como uma estratégia para o mundo em desenvolvimento adquiriu maior interesse dos governos e das organizações internacionais para o cumprimento dos Objectivos de Desenvolvimento do Milénio. Neste artigo, procura-se contribuir para o quadro teórico relacionado com as diversas perspectivas sobre os programas de cooperação internacional para o desenvolvimento, que consideram o turismo como uma estratégia que contribui para a consecução destes objectivos, como é o caso do Programa UNWTO.Volunteers. As características principais deste programa serão descritas e serão discutidos os impactos que podem produzir nos destinos envolvidos. Esta discussão se baseia num estudo de caso do Programa UNWTO.Volunteers, desenvolvido no estado mexicano de Chiapas em 2008.
