Prestigious honor bestowed on Les Roches - Conference will take place in July 2016
By Beatriz Blecher-Catto, Global Events and International High School Strategy Manager
Les Roches will be hosting the next IB World Student Conference (IBWSC) in Bluche from July 3rd-9th. Students from IB Schools around the world collaborate to develop innovative solutions to global issues. Important key note speakers will challenge students with real, significant global issues. Our theme will be focused on: Global citizenship: exploring individual and collective responsibilities. Working in Global Action Teams, students will develop creative ways to address the problems posed by conference leaders and propose solutions to these issues in the form of creativity, action, service (CAS) projects. Any student who will be enrolled in the IB Diploma Programme (DP) or Career-related Programme (CP) in the autumn 2016 is eligible for the conferences.
