The OECD Programme on Educational Building (PEB) promotes the exchange and analysis of policy, research and experience in all matters related to educational building. Its work is of relevance to policy-makers in national and regional authorities responsible for educational facilities, to architects, system level and institutional managers, and to researchers in the field.
The Programme has three objectives: improving the quality and suitability of educational buildings; ensuring that the best use is made of the resources devoted to planning, building, running and maintaining educational buildings; giving early warning of the impact on educational building of trends in education and in society as a whole.
PEB's work is conducted through a set of activities determined by the Programme's Steering Committee. Its mission is to ensure that the maximum educational benefit is obtained from past and future investment in educational buildings and equipment, and that building stock is planned and managed in the most efficient way.
