Have you ever wanted to travel in a way that deepens your understanding of global issues, connects you with inspiring changemakers, and allows you to be part of something bigger than yourself? Heart-Links’ Solidarity Trip to Peru offers exactly that.
In July 2025, we are inviting a small group of Canadians to Zaña, Chiclayo, and Cajamarca, where they will spend time with our local partners, learn about community-driven projects, and experience firsthand the power of solidarity.
More Than Just a Trip
This is not your typical travel experience. It’s an opportunity to engage with communities that are driving their own solutions to local challenges. Participants will visit education, gender equality, sustainability, and health initiatives—projects designed and led by the people who know their communities best.
You’ll meet leaders working to improve food security, literacy, women’s empowerment, and environmental sustainability. You’ll learn how local organizations are strengthening their communities through grassroots efforts and how you can be part of this shared journey.
A Unique Learning Experience
Beyond witnessing the impact of these projects, you’ll exchange knowledge and perspectives with local partners, reflecting on social justice issues in a global context. Through conversations, shared meals, and cultural experiences, you’ll build meaningful relationships that go beyond borders.
“Each of these organizations and projects was truly remarkable to witness, and the scope of their impact is powerful for their communities. The community partners are quite autonomous in driving the projects they engage in because they are the ‘experts’ of their experience and of the needs within their unique communities.”
This trip is a chance to listen, learn, and walk alongside our partners in true solidarity.
