The benefits of an Expedition
Expeditions are adventurous, high-impact experiences that shape character and develop essential life skills with a multi-day trek at its core. They are well-suited for outdoor education initiatives, Round Square schools, or as part of Duke of Edinburgh awards.
They are the type of challenge that builds lifelong confidence, giving your students what they need to grow and learn. These benefits will stay with them throughout their life, whether it’s their education, work, or relationships.
Expeditions are designed to be an engaging and challenging learning experience, with clear links to personal growth and student wellbeing, that also allows for collaboration with global communities.
Beyond these learning outcomes, an educational trip abroad like this is also an incredible life experience. A recent survey of Projects Abroad participants found that:
- 99% believed they “connected with new people and cultures”
- 96% felt more confident interacting with people from different cultures
- 94% through their trip gave them a better understanding of global challenges
- 93% reported that the skills or knowledge they acquired will help them in future
