why we do it
SOCIAL IMPACT through travel
our brand manifesto is at the heart of everything we do.
SOCIAL IMPACT INVESTMENT
HOW WE DO IT
Social impact investing is a powerful approach to making investments that generate both financial returns and positive social or environmental outcomes. We focus on projects and initiatives designed to address critical challenges like poverty, inequality, education, healthcare, and climate change—delivering measurable economic and societal benefits.
Impact travel serves as a dynamic vehicle for social impact investing, allowing travelers to contribute directly to sustainable development while experiencing meaningful cultural exchanges. By supporting community-led tourism, conservation efforts, and ethical enterprises, impact travel channels investment into local economies, fostering long-term economic resilience and social transformation. Whether funding eco-friendly lodges, vocational training programs, or renewable energy initiatives, these investments create lasting change, empowering communities and preserving natural and cultural heritage for future generations.
Please note: Orbis Expeditions does not exclusively prescribe supporting RAIC UK. Should you be an NGO, corporate, impact fund or project owner who would like to use our travel services or a potential funder who would prefer to support an alternative organisation or impactful rewilding project, that’s close to your heart, please do let us know.
