Our Destinations

Our programmes are designed to bring meaning to travel and give an experience beyond a traditional tourist excursion. Join our community of 5000+ Global Citizens.

The places
where we work

We offer programmes and challenges across eight fantastic destinations, in some of the most interesting communities across the world.

You could be a part of the long-term impact we have on these communities, maybe by raising awareness of climate change in Peru, shaping the futures of young children in Thailand or improving women’s health in Cambodia. Alternatively, take part in a fundraising challenge to a destination like Finland and raise money for a fantastic cause.
