It’s said that “Toronto” is derived from a local aboriginal word for “plenty of people” or “meeting place”. And indeed the city today is one of the world’s most multicultural cities – home to more than seventy differ- ent nationalities speaking some one hundred languages. It is thus fitting that Toronto is this year’s “meeting place” for IBSC educators from so many nations – Ja- pan, China, Spain, the United Kingdom, South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, the United States and Can- ada. At its creation, the founders of the IBSC saw that it should be global in purpose and ambition, and we reap the benefits of this vision every time we meet. We hope that New Worlds for Boys will inspire you to envision dynamic ways to prepare boys for new worlds.
