The Outdoorsy Educator – Where Travel, Education & Adventure Meet
In this episode of The Outdoorsy Educator, host Alasdair Green speaks with Kimberly Haley-Coleman, founder of Globe Aware, about the powerful intersection of travel, education, cultural immersion, and meaningful human connection. The conversation explores how thoughtfully designed international volunteer programs can move beyond traditional tourism to create transformative experiences that foster empathy, global citizenship, cultural humility, and personal growth.
Kimberly shares how Globe Aware’s community-led programs around the world give travelers a rare opportunity to engage directly with local communities, offering a “front-row seat” into everyday life across cultures while encouraging deeper understanding through service and shared experience.
