Through this, we drive our mission, which is to educate students to be global citizens with the courage and capacity to create a just and joyful tomorrow together. Ecolint is built on strong humanitarian values and prides itself on its long history of pedagogical innovation, including the creation of the Model United Nations system and the International Baccalaureate. We have around 1250 employees representing more than 60 nationalities, united as one core of dynamic professionals, committed to our mission.

Our programs are based on the IB’s ‘Learner Profile’, a set of ideals that inspire, motivate, and focus the work of the school and help students to become more thoughtful, moral, cultured, and caring.
