4 BIPOC Adventure Travel Organizations

"Started after its cofounder observed a homogenous guiding culture, this organization provides training workshops, scholarships, mentorship, and diversity, equity, and inclusion programming to increase representation in climbing. Founded by Don Nguyen (the son of Vietnamese immigrants), it has worked with more than 300 mentors, teachers, and guides since 2018 and runs weekly BIPOC climb nights across western Washington; upcoming initiatives include a partnership with Outward Bound and women-only programming." - Heather Greenwood Davis Heather Greenwood Davis For more than 20 years, Heather Greenwood Davis has been sharing stories that connect travelers with the places they visit.
