After several years of absence, CISM ensured the continuity of this event by giving Ecuador the responsibility of hosting this important event, held for the fourth time in South America.

 

 

This institutional event, organized for the first time in 1962 in Greece, five years after the creation of the CISM Academy, was organized to the attention of the CISM family on all continents, in the form of clinics and seminars, with the goal of transmitting scientific knowledges for application to military fitness training, sports and health and for the development of the military sport.
