IJB Committee

The International Junior Branch Committee is a collection of Juniors from around the world who are interested, motivated and are moving and shaking to develop and build the work of the International Junior Branch and support the growth of the JB world.

The International Junior Branch Committee is chaired by the International Junior Representatives and is divided into three sections: Connect, Growth & Development and Quality Lab. The committee also has several ongoing projects which you can (and should!) read about in the projects section of this website.

Every year at the Annual International Meetings (AIM) the committee writes a work plan which outlines what they will do for the coming year.

Ever attended a regional meeting or workshop? Ever been to a Peace One Day activity? Ever talked about exclusion? These are only a few of the hot projects being supported by the IJB committee which we want you to participate in, contribute to building and always, always let us know what you think!

Learn more about what the committee is doing by checking out the current committee plan.
