Queer Students, International Service-Learning, and Inclusivity: Insights into Identity, Activism, and Learning
1Leo T. McCarthy Center for Public Service and the Common Good, University of San Francisco, San Francisco, California, USA.
Abstract:
This qualitative study examines the experiences of LGBTQ students involved in international service-learning, exploring the possibilities, positive impacts, and complexities of navigating LGBTQ identities while participating in international service-learning. Analysis of their experiences yielded three themes that played an important role shaping their experiences: balancing their stance as learners and as activists, viewing their LGBTQ identities as assets as well as objects of structural barriers, and navigating language to make sense of their context and make themselves understood. These findings have implications for how universities and community partners prepare, train, and support students before, during and after their experiences abroad.
