Protecting the Edge
Seeing a polar bear in the wild is something we’ll never forget.
But understanding what it takes for polar bears and people to coexist in Churchill gave that experience an entirely different meaning.
During our journey, we spent time learning about the delicate balance between conservation and community and the work being done to protect both.
Giving back has always been an important part of our Divine journeys, and in Churchill we were proud to be among the first contributors to a grassroots initiative between Polar Bears International and the Churchill Bear Smart Program.
The focus is education and prevention: reducing human-bear conflict, protecting polar bears and helping keep the Churchill community safe.
One of our travellers perhaps said it best:
“We feel enriched and grateful. Learning about wildlife and Indigenous peoples was impactful. The education portions made this trip special. It is wonderful that you support local workers & artists.”

For us, meaningful travel isn’t only about seeing extraordinary places.
It’s about understanding them, respecting them and, whenever we can, leaving something positive behind.
With gratitude,
