World Expeditions Foundation [WEF] raises funds for grass-roots community development projects in impoverished communities around the world.
The funds we raise through WEF finance Community Development Projects. These projects aim to improve access to education, in communities around the world, in the belief that education is the pathway out of poverty.
Protecting vulnerable animals
Drawing on the expertise of international animal welfare organisation, World Animal Protection, we have developed the industry’s most comprehensive Animal Welfare Code of Conduct. We advocate that the best animal encounter is a wild one, we encourage you to view animals in their natural habitat and boycott cruel animal encounters. Visit our website to view our Animal Welfare Code of Conduct.
Children in tourist areas are especially susceptible to physical, emotional and sexual abuse. Our Child Protection Policy, developed in conjunction with World Vision, ensures that we vet travellers who will be in prolonged contact with children on our itineraries to ensure the children's welfare. We are also on the Working Party of the ReThink Orphanages Network and removed all orphanage tourism visits from our programs back in 2013.
