World Challenge trips have been refined over 30 years, with an emphasis on enriching the lives of young people through experiential travel. The World Challenge philosophy is based on a belief that character and perspective are developed through real world experiences. Working in partnership with schools, World Challenge facilitates powerful student led expeditions to the developing world as a means of providing opportunities for young people to develop crucial life skills, such as leadership, resilience, and self-belief.

With a focus on personal growth, learning service (often through sustainability and nature regeneration initiatives), health and wellbeing, our vision is for young people to return from their World Challenge with a concern for something larger than themselves, an enriched view of self and a newfound confidence to take on the world
