Founded by Pat Yang Guiping 杨贵平, Zigen has spent almost four decades connecting school and village into one cycle of learning, growing, and sustaining — training over 5,000 teachers and supporting 140,000+ student years in rural China. Zigen's Meaningful Travel trips are designed for people who want to visit the actual schools and villages and experience what sustainability really means. No commercial tour offers this access — travel with likeminded people, and a portion of your fee goes directly to the schools and villages you visit.
由杨贵平创办的滋根,近四十年来将学校与村庄连接成学习、成长与可持续发展的完整循环——已培训教师逾5,000名,支持农村学生累计超过14万学年。滋根的「有意义旅行」专为想要亲赴学校和村庄、体验可持续发展真正含义的人而设计。没有任何商业旅行社能提供这样的体验——与志同道合的旅伴同行,您的费用部分将直接捐赠给参访的学校与村庄。
A holistic journey to Zigen's Eco Green Schools and village communities in Yulong County, Yunnan.

One full day in the schools, one full day in the villages — seeing how education and community life are deeply integrated: from classrooms to cooperatives, from mixed planting to life learning.
一次走进滋根绿色生态文明学校和玉龙县乡村社区的全景旅程。玉龙是全国唯一的纳西族自治县,在丽江联合国教科文组织旅游区的边缘,体验不一样的风景。一整天在学校,一整天在村庄——亲眼见证教育与社区生活的深度融合:从课堂到合作社,从间作套种到终身学习。
