Designed for groups who want their time in Bhutan to also be a window into how the country lives out Gross National Happiness in practice — through its schools, its approach to sustainability, and its healthcare and gender initiatives. Each day carries a theme, and the themes can be adjusted to match what your group cares about most.

  • A Greener Way community visit
  • Leadership sessions with Desuup, the Guardians of Peace, and the GNH Centre
  • Community visits to the Traditional Medicine Hospital and PEMA, Bhutan's national mental health agency
  • A visit to RENEW, a leading organization on gender-based violence support
  • An ELC School visit and circle with students
  • Arts and crafts immersion
  • The Tiger's Nest Monastery hike
