The IBF Foundation is the leading non-profit organization launched by IBF International Consulting in 2018 with the mission to enhance awareness about development cooperation among youngsters and contribute to generate new perspectives for young individuals by offering hands-on experiences in development cooperation projects.

The IBF Foundation completed with a non profit dimension the IBF International Consulting's extensive activity, leveraging its vast expertise in implementing internationally financed projects across various sectors and networks to the benefit of youngsters from Europe and developing countries, providing them with valuable insights and traineeship opportunities in the field of development cooperation.

In February 2024, the IBF Foundation embarked on a significant collaboration with the ICA International Consulting Alliance, the dynamic network of over 40 top experts and 80 consultancy organizations spanning more than 50 countries, established by IBF International Consulting in 2012.

This partnership marked a new chapter for the IBF Foundation, expanding its reach and impact through the launch of the “Young Professionals in Development (YPD) Traineeship Programme", a comprehensive initiative that combines mentorship, training workshops, and field placements.

At IBF Foundation we believe in the power of innovation, experiential learning, and capacity-building to drive positive change in communities around the world.
