With the Travel Elevates grant, Human Connections was able to serve both artisans and travelers via virtual learning and partnership development. While this involves new programming, it also directly furthers Human Connections’ mission to increase empathy and strengthen local communities during the pandemic and beyond.
MarAlliance
MarAlliance inspired and enables positive change for threatened marine wildlife, their critical habitats and dependent human communities in Panama, Honduras
and Belize. Due to limited access to technology and internet, remote and rural communities in these countries were disproportionately affected by the pandemic and further disconnected from access to educational resources and systems.

With the Travel Elevates grant, MarAlliance was able to build on its considerable educational work with an innovative and scalable educational strategy to improve education access and equity across key sites in Panama, Honduras, and Belize.
