The International Bureau for Epilepsy (IBE) is a non-for-profit started in 1961 which aims to improve the social condition and quality of life of people with epilepsy. The organization addresses social problems such as employment, education, driving license restrictions and public awareness. Its members are from both the lay public and a professional background. IBE has a network of 140 chapters in 100 countries and often collaborates with the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) to increase understanding about epilepsy.
