IB Mission

• 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.
