The International Baccalaureate 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 IB 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.
