| This draft may meet Wikipedia’s criteria for speedy deletion because in its current form it serves only to promote or publicise an entity, person, product, or idea, and would require a fundamental rewrite in order to become encyclopedic. However, the mere fact that a company, organization, or product is a page’s subject does not, on its own, qualify that page for deletion under this criterion. This criterion also does not apply where substantial encyclopedic content would remain after removing the promotional material as deletion is not cleanup; in this case please remove the promotional material yourself, or add the {{advert}} tag to alert others to do so. See CSD G11.
If this draft does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, or you intend to fix it, please remove this notice, but do not remove this notice from pages that you have created yourself. If you created this page and you disagree with the given reason for deletion, you can click the button below and leave a message explaining why you believe it should not be deleted. You can also visit the talk page to check if you have received a response to your message. Note that this draft may be deleted at any time if it unquestionably meets the speedy deletion criteria, or if an explanation posted to the talk page is found to be insufficient.
Note to page author: you have not edited the talk page yet. If you wish to contest this speedy deletion, clicking the button above will allow you to leave a talk page message explaining why you think this page should not be deleted.

The International Beauty Union (IBU) is a global non-governmental organization based in Beirut, Lebanon, that coordinates and promotes international beauty pageants and humanitarian award events.[1] The Union aims to standardize international beauty contests under ethical and inclusive guidelines, with programs recognizing social and humanitarian contributions in the beauty industry.[2]
The International Beauty Union was founded in 1999 by Lebanese event director Alaa Jaber, who sought to create a formalized structure for international beauty pageants after observing a lack of regulatory standards in the sector.[3] Since its inception, the IBU has worked with pageant organizers across the Middle East, Europe, and North Africa to develop cross-regional competitions and educational initiatives in event management.
The IBU coordinates international competitions and beauty-themed award festivals and has introduced events emphasizing social inclusion, such as the Miss Epilepsy and Miss Special Needs contests.[4] It also collaborates with private and nonprofit partners—including Avans International—to support humanitarian and medical-awareness initiatives.[5]
The Union is headed by a Director and regional coordinators representing participating countries. Operational activities are managed through national offices and partner agencies licensed under IBU’s event-management framework.
IBU activities and events have been covered in regional Arab media including Helou Al Fan, Enta Wayn, Addiyar, Seven E News, and El Watan Al Araby.[6]
