US-based The Traveling School offers teenage girls between 15 and 18 the opportunity to explore the world and learn about themselves through academic, physical, and cultural challenges. Sixteen motivated young women and four inspiring teachers travel to a unique region of the globe for 15 weeks. Students earn full credit, immerse themselves in new cultures, develop outdoor skills, and build confidence during this transformational semester.
During their visits to the CITW partner schools in Namibia, they engaged in Eco-Clubs lessons, gardening, cultural exchanges, fun games and outdoor activities, amongst many others.
