IMYB is a conference/competition held every year in different places across the world at which a team of three competitors and at least one team leader (adult) attend and take part in competitions, meet new people and find out about the city which they are visiting.
So far 7 conferences have been held, and England have the opportunity to hold it next year. In 2016, it was held in Prague and a team of three members attended from the UK. All three enjoyed the experience very much and would recommend it. The video from Prague 2016 has been attached to the project. 20 countries attended in 2016 and we want to make England bigger and better than ever before, inviting over 25 countries. It is going to be held at Marlborough College
