IBIS has a new vision

The new vision was agreed at the IBIS Annual Assembly on the 5th of November 2011. This marks the end of a year, where IBIS’ identity, values and role have been looked at and considered from all angles. Now IBIS is ready for a future with a strong vision for the whole of the organisation.
