As part of the global Outward Bound network, we have expertise across international organisations. We are reviewed every two years by a team from OBI who checks that our safety policies, practices, and procedures are robust and being enacted in reality.
Outward Bound Hong Kong has been compliant with over 235 international safety standards and became the first officially accredited outdoor experiential education organisation in Asia since 2011.
