2009 Heads conference, 13 - 16 October; Seville, Spain
We are delighted to announce that the 2009 World Conference for IB World School heads will be held in Seville, Spain. The conference will open on the evening of Tuesday 13 October, and conclude on Friday 16 October with a gala dinner.
Every two years, the Heads’ Standing Association (HSA) of the International Baccalaureate holds a conference at which IB Heads from around the world can gather and share their insights. A pattern has been established of holding the conference in each of the IB regions in turn; in 2003 we met in Cancun (IB Latin America), in 2005 in Bangkok (IB Asia Pacific), the venue in 2007 was San Francisco ((Communiqué) IB North America), and this year it will take place in Seville (IB Africa, Europe, Middle East).
This conference, organized by the HSA in partnership with the IB Africa, Europe and Middle East Regional Office and the Colegio de San Francisco de Paula, is unique in being organized by heads of IB World Schools, for heads of IB World Schools. It provides an unparalleled opportunity to meet with fellow IB school leaders from around the world, and to give a personal reality to the international nature of the organization.
Programme details are being developed, and will be announced shortly; meanwhile, please reserve the dates in your calendar and plan to join us next year in this remarkable city.
