Vision Trip

A Learning Journey at the Intersection of Global Health, Child Well-Being, and Partnership

Join us for an immersive vision trip to Kenya designed for leaders, practitioners, and partners who want to deepen their understanding of global orphan care and co-create solutions that support children and families to thrive.

Why this trip

A Collaborative Expedition | Harvard Global Healthcare Leaders Foundation & A Child’s Hope Foundation

Strengthen

Improve your understanding of the complex, adaptive challenges within the global orphan care sector.

Engage

Work alongside local partners to better understand how systems, culture, and context shape outcomes for children and families.

Co-create

Generate ideas for local and global health solutions focused on the physical, mental, social, and emotional well-being of children in residential care and families navigating reunification.

This vision trip is not a tour. It is a learning experience rooted in humility, partnership, and systems thinking.

This unique trip is a strategic fact-finding and relationship-building experience designed to inform long-term programs for GHLF and ACHF. Through thoughtfully curated conversations with government and nonprofit leaders, site visits in vulnerable communities, a hands-on service opportunity with Remade, and an immersive experience with Shelter Yetu, the trip will result in a clear set of opportunities for deeper partnership and investment in global health for vulnerable children.  

 We are looking to create a high-powered, tactical team of Health Leaders to accomplish this project research and who can generate ideas to do more good better. There are only 6 spots available on this trip.

This experience is designed to challenge assumptions, expand perspective, and inspire more effective, context-aware action.

Trip Highlights

  • Immersive, multi-day learning experience with Shelter Yetu, our trusted local partner in Kenya
  • Unique service day with Remade to learn about how service lifts youth out of poverty
  • Collaborative roundtable discussions with diverse partners working across global children’s health, family care, and development
  • Three-day, two-night safari, an optional opportunity that creates space for reflection, relationship-building, and experiencing Kenya’s natural beauty
