India

Discover a side to India you won't have expected

Surrounded by lush greenery and breathtaking mountain ranges, India offers a truly unique setting for meaningful travel and cultural immersion. Students are based in our hub in Palampur - a peaceful hill station known as the “tea capital” of Northern India. In their free time, students can explore rolling tea plantations, vibrant local markets, temples, and charming colonial architecture. You will also have the opportunity to visit Dharamshala, home to the Tibetan Government in exile and a destination unlike anywhere else in India. With colourful prayer flags, peaceful monasteries, and monks in vibrant robes, Dharamshala offers a chance to relax, reflect, and gain deeper insight into Tibetan culture - including the backgrounds of some of the families we work with in Palampur.

With a population of over one billion people and one of the fastest growing economies in the world, India faces a range of social and economic development issues. Those living in rural areas often face the majority of these challenges, with many people living on the poverty line and lacking access to quality healthcare, education and income generation opportunities. To make a difference, we’re going to need your help.
