In December 2024, members of OLLI embarked on a transformative 10-day journey to Chiang Mai, Thailand, blending service, cultural immersion, and lifelong learning. The group of 21 participants from California, Arizona, Colorado, and other parts of the U.S., explored Thai culture, engaged in meaningful community projects, and deepened their understanding of global issues. 

Many described the experience as life-changing, highlighting the impact of connecting with local communities and embracing new perspectives.

A very unique way to experience Belize! Discover Corps operated this amazing OLLI at the ASU faculty trip in 2019.  Each day will began with an “OLLI Reflection Time” facilitated by OLLI at ASU professors. The itinerary was designed to enhance each lifelong learner’s ability to look below the surface of our journey and make this a truly unique and memorable travel experience. Travelers had the chance to learn and support the Belizean educational system by helping with English language lessons, as well had the chance to visit some organizations and some unique spots in this beautiful place.
