The aim of the IDO is to promote young international talent, to get young people abroad excited about the German language, to strengthen mutual tolerance and to give them access to German culture, business and civil society. At the same time, the IDO also promotes Germany as a place to study and work. The International German Olympiad is organized by the Goethe-Institut in cooperation with the International Association of Teachers of German.
