The British Council builds connections, understanding and trust between people in the UK and other countries through arts and culture, education and the English language. They work in two ways – directly with individuals to transform their lives, and with governments and partners to make a bigger difference for the longer term, creating benefit for millions of people all over the world.
The B.C. helps young people to gain the skills, confidence and connections they are looking for to realise their potential and to participate in strong and inclusive communities. It also supports them to learn English, to get a high-quality education and to gain internationally recognised qualifications. Its work in arts and culture stimulates creative expression and exchange and nurtures creative enterprise.
In other words, the B.C. connects the best of the UK with the world and the best of the world with the UK. These connections lead to an understanding of each other's strengths and of the challenges and values that we share. This builds trust between people in the UK and other nations which endures even when official relations may be strained.
It works on the ground in more than 100 countries. In 2019-20 the BC connected with 80 million people directly and with 791 million overall, including online and through its broadcasts and publications.
