In a groundbreaking partnership that continues to redefine sustainable travel and family-oriented experiences, Club Med and Mandai X have announced the extension of their acclaimed Ranger Buddies Missions at Bintan Island through 30 June 2025. This initiative, which combines education, conservation, and adventure, has already captured the hearts of over 1,500 families since its launch in late September, paving the way for a new era of purposeful travel.

A Mission to Inspire Future Eco-Stewards

The Ranger Buddies program offers families a transformative journey into nature, emphasizing sustainability and conservation through engaging, mission-based activities. The initiative is meticulously designed to empower children with essential C.O.U.R.A.G.E. strengths: Curious, Optimistic, Undaunted, Resourceful, Adaptable, Gritty, and Empathetic. Through interactive activities, augmented reality experiences, and real-world exploration, young participants are inspired to become champions for the environment.

Olivier Monceau, General Manager of Singapore and Malaysia at Club Med reflected on the partnership’s success: “Our collaboration with Mandai X has allowed us to inspire families to reconnect with nature while instilling a sense of responsibility in the next generation. The extension of our partnership underscores our shared vision of creating meaningful experiences that not only delight families but also inspire children to become future stewards of our planet. The Ranger Buddies program has been a resounding success, and we look forward to reaching even more families in the coming months.”

Driving Engagement and Impact

The program’s success is evident in its growing digital footprint. During the campaign, Club Med Bintan’s webpage saw a 9.3% increase in sessions, with purchase intent rising by 8.8%. These metrics underscore the program’s ability to resonate with a growing audience of eco-conscious families seeking enriching travel experiences.

The Europ Assistance Holiday Barometer 2024 further highlights the relevance of this partnership, revealing that 75% of Singaporeans express a strong interest in slow tourism and sustainable travel. With family travel emerging as a key trend, the Ranger Buddies program is perfectly positioned to meet the demand for experiences that blend entertainment with education.

A Shared Vision for a Sustainable Future

Belina Lee, CEO of Mandai X, emphasized the transformative power of the Ranger Buddies program: “Through the Ranger Buddies programme, we aim to inspire and nurture the next generation of future-ready global citizens who are empowered to drive positive changes for themselves, others, and the world. By blending fun travel adventures with valuable lessons in conservation and sustainability, we are able to deliver impactful and transformative experiences that create lifelong memories and lessons. Together with Club Med, we are continuing to scale and reach even more young minds and their families across the region.”
