'To journey through regions dreamed of, taking the chance to live the dream.'

As a professional academic and medical body, WORLDWISE EXPEDITONS promotes knowledge and research to advance the understanding of our mutually dependent world. We support education about, and the health of, this planet in a rapidly changing world through formal learning, through expeditions and through fieldwork on such journey.

Each year 700 million people travel internationally. With these numbers the potential for spread of disease, for the proliferation of pollution, and for the destruction of many sensitive environments due to overwhelming population, is so great that our world could be destroyed unless we care for her and treat her respectfully. WORLDWISE EXPEDITIONS is keen to promote the wider understanding, relevance and enjoyment of Earth, whilst recognising the public’s growing desire for knowledge. There is a need to care for the world’s environment, its people, land and especially its water.

We promote and wish to develop WORLDWISE EXPEDITION’S membership and staff, and reinforce the importance of professional standards in all aspects of being a responsible traveller in a world full of intrigue, caught in extremes of turmoil and that promotes passion and emotion.
