The International Baccalaureate Organization aims to develop
inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to
create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural
understanding and respect.
To this end the IBO works with schools, governments and
international organizations to develop challenging
programmes of international education and rigorous
assessment.
These programmes encourage students across the world to
become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who
understand that other people, with their differences, can also
be right.
