‘Slum Tourism’ for Impact?: Reality Tours couples education and social change
Besides the goal of providing visitors with a deeper understanding of India’s largest slum, Dharavi, Reality Tours has also dedicated 80 percent of its profits (about 30 percent of gross revenues) for social projects. Most of these resources are used by Reality Gives, a sister organization that performs social projects focused on the community’s youth. These include providing classes in art, English, computing, vocational training, skill development and personal health programs.
