Global Discovery
The New Tenth Foundation's Global Discovery Program takes learning beyond borders. Since our founding, we have led eight international expeditions across four continents—immersing students in the cultures, histories, and natural wonders of the world.
This is not tourism. This is experiential education in motion.
From the wildlife-rich plains of Botswana to the ancient pyramids of Egypt, from the innovation of Dubai's World Expo to the sacred landscapes of Bali, our students don't just visit—they engage. They walk where history was made. They connect with communities. They return home with expanded horizons and a deeper understanding of their place in the world.
What We Believe:
Travel Builds Confidence
Navigating unfamiliar cities, communicating across languages, and adapting to new environments teaches students that they are capable of more than they ever imagined.
Travel Develops Cultural Sensitivity
Breaking bread with villagers, learning traditional rhythms, and hearing stories from local communities replaces stereotypes with understanding.
Travel Creates Global Citizens
When students witness firsthand how the rest of the world lives, they return home with a broader perspective and a deeper sense of responsibility.
Travel Makes Learning Stick
No textbook can replicate the feeling of standing at the base of the Pyramids, watching elephants cross the savanna, or feeling the mist of Victoria Falls. These moments become part of who we are.
Our Commitment:
Education That Sticks
Learning comes alive when students stand where history happened and explore ecosystems firsthand.
Culture That Connects
True cultural exchange cannot happen through a bus window. We create opportunities for genuine connection.
Adventure That Creates Lasting Memories
Joy is not the opposite of learning—it is the catalyst for memory. The moments that thrill us stay with us forever.
When you join a Global Discovery Trip, you are not simply traveling. You are:
Stepping out of your comfort zone and into your potential
Building friendships that cross borders
Seeing the world—and your place in it—with new eyes
This isn't just travel. It's an enriching, heart-opening adventure that combines education, culture, and fun.
