A recent article in The New York Times talked about the shocking abuse some women have faced in the climbing community.
We know there is still a lot that needs to be done in the outdoor industry as a whole, but in response to this, we wanted to reassure you about how we are helping women to experience the great outdoors in a safe environment.
Here are a few facts about DTC that you might not know:
• The day-to-day running of DTC is 100% women-led. It will be another woman on the end of the phone or replying to your emails!
• 77% of our tour managers are women.
• The majority of our participants are women.
• An increasing number of our in-country local guides are now women.
• We work with trusted local agents who are required to comply with our health and safety requirements.
• All participants are required to sign a statement agreeing to conduct themselves in a respectful, safe and appropriate manner.
At DTC we believe adventure is for everyone, regardless of gender, colour, creed, sexual orientation, or anything else. We believe in inclusivity and stand against any form of discrimination or prejudice and warmly welcome individuals from all walks of life.
We will always prioritize a supportive and respectful environment for ALL our participants on our tours.
