The International Military Sports Council, known by its acronym "CISM", is an international sports association composed of the armed forces of member nations accepted by the General Assembly. CISM is open to the armed forces of all nations. The aims of CISM are to develop friendly relations between the Armed Forces of member nations, promote physical education and sports activities, provide mutual technical assistance, support less privileged members in the name of friendship and solidarity, contribute towards the balanced and harmonious development of military personnel, and contribute to the international effort for universal peace. On May 1946, the Allied Forces Sports Council was set up, namely by Colonel Debrus and Major Mollet who were among the founding fathers of CISM two years later. Unfortunately, because of political discord, the Allied Forces Sports Council was extinguished in 1947. However, the ideal was rekindled the following year with the founding of CISM and the rise of a global vision.

This appeal by a third state, a member of the league, will serve the same purpose of laying the facts before the world, and when the Secretary-General transmits the appeal to the Assembly or to the Council the public is... given notice of the nature of the controversy. Whenever there exists a threat of war, the Secretary-General is required upon the request of any member of the League forthwith to summon a meeting of the Council. Such a call would focus the opinion of the whole world and might help to prevent war.
