RISE Travel Institute is a nonprofit organization in the education sector focused on increasing awareness of the impacts of travel on communities and ecosystems. It serves university students, travel professionals, and global travelers through educational programs, experiential journeys, and financial support such as tuition grants and travel scholarships, aiming to deepen understanding of travel’s broader consequences. Based in a city within a wider region, the organization positions itself as a resource for learners and practitioners seeking informed, responsible travel practices. A recent development involves a collaboration with Etnica Travel, a Guatemala-based travel company, to organize trip details for a program.
