About:
The Global Intent
What began as a travel group specializing in “voluntourism” for Black Millennials has since grown into a full-service agency bringing together purpose-driven travelers from all backgrounds. Since 2015, The Global Intent has led journeys that blend cultural immersion with service, offering a unique space for people to connect, give back, and grow through travel.
Our Founder and Chief Experience Officer, Jada Davis, is a dedicated entrepreneur and travel enthusiast who has led thousands of travelers on excursions across more than 20 countries. Inspired by her own upbringing in a family of full-time entrepreneurs, Jada has seen how travel opens minds and fuels inspiration. She founded The Global Intent to expand access to global experiences and proudly led the first Black travel group to drive American tourism to Tanzania and Zanzibar. Through her initiatives, she provides students from underserved communities with passports and travel grants, giving them the opportunity to gain global perspectives through one-of-a-kind programming.
Today, The Global Intent is dedicated to building community and purpose through travel, especially in destinations comprising the African diaspora. We work with local vendors, contribute to community service projects, and create opportunities for travelers to connect in meaningful ways.
