Outward Bound Australia

Outward Bound provides challenging experiences that help people discover, develop and achieve their potential. We lead in developing human potential. In bringing out the best in people, we aim to develop the most positive elements of the human character, consistent with our core values: Integrity, Responsibility, Resilience, Compassion, Service and Human Potential. We are passionate about taking people on learning journeys to discover their potential. Outward Bound journeys are both inward and external journeys of discovery. In our base camps, programs and offices, we seek to create a model for how the world can be: a compassionate world where people of diverse backgrounds are unconditionally accepted for who they are, and encouraged to become the best they can be. Our programs impact directly and indirectly: teenagers, young adults, business professionals, community leaders and families. We seek to serve and develop the potential of people with mixed abilities and those of diverse cultural backgrounds. We have an important role in developing the potential of individuals, teams, leaders, organisations, communities and the broader Australian society. We believe all people have the right to discover, develop and achieve their potential. We work in the natural world, allowing people to expand their awareness and appreciation for the environment. Our practices respect the areas we work in, leaving minimal impact so that they can be enjoyed by future generations.
