Camps International, a global leader in socially responsible school expeditions, is launching operations in the United States. With a legacy of impact already established in North America, 1,168 students from the US and Canada have contributed more than 30,690 hours to community and conservation projects worldwide through Camps expeditions.

Why it matters
Since 2002, Camps International has helped 55,000+ students from 1,000+ schools worldwide contribute to meaningful community and conservation projects. These experiences build resilience, global awareness and leadership skills in young adults.

Educational innovation
Camps International blends classroom learning with real-world action. Its Real World Studies programme connects UN Sustainable Development Goals to hands-on student impact, as highlighted in the 2025 Impact Report. Students learn practical skills while contributing tangible benefits to local communities.

Powered by a global group
As part of Impact Travel Group (ITG), Camps International joins U.S.-based World Endeavors and Kaya Responsible Travel, alongside other mission-driven brands worldwide. This network strengthens Camps’ ability to serve American schools with trusted, responsible travel experiences.

What’s new for US schools

• Hands-on expeditions that challenge students to contribute meaningfully to communities and ecosystems.
• Permanent camps in Africa, Asia and Latin America, staffed locally, offering immersive, sustainable learning.
• Curriculum-aligned resources to prepare students and teachers before travel and extend learning afterward.
• A steadfast commitment to safety, inclusion and environmental responsibility.

“Camps International has always been driven by a strong sense of purpose for its travelers, partner communities, and the planet — a purpose that shapes every expedition and every project. The 2025 Impact Report reinforces just how important it is to equip young people with the knowledge, skills and values to thrive in an increasingly complex world. We’re incredibly excited to see Camps expand into the US, bringing its unique model of immersive, ethical travel to even more students across North America.” said Matt Lacey, COO, Impact Travel Group.

With its US launch, Camps International is excited to inspire a new generation of students to explore, contribute, and make a positive impact on communities and the planet.
