GAISF is equally committed to helping its Members promote sport at every level and in every corner of the world, from grassroots to elite level competition, wherever its Members have national organisations and events. The mission of GAISF is to serve, represent, promote and protect the common interests of its Members and to help them achieve their global objectives. Furthermore, GAISF aims to facilitate and promote knowledge sharing between its Members; to support the organisation of SportAccord, Regional SportAccord and the IF Forum; to develop ad hoc services for its Members; and to organise and coordinate multi-sport events. We believe that this mission is reflected in everything we do and we are committed to enhancing the role and reach of our Members around the world.
