This exhibition highlights some important milestones of IBE’s history since its creation in 1925. Established in 1925 in Geneva as a private Swiss association, in 1929 it became the first intergovernmental organization in the field of education, thus laying a solid foundation for global education as we now know it. For nine decades, the IBE has been central to educational progress and innovations that give it the renown it has today.
Through images, text and a floating timeline, the exhibition also pays tribute to the many forerunners, innovators, and scholars in education who were and still are convinced that international dialogue and cooperation are essential for achieving true equality of opportunity in education for all children.
The opening ceremony was held on 10 December 2015, at UNOG Library Events Room and League of Nations Museum.
