FISU, or the International University Sports Federation, is an organization that promotes sports and physical education among university students worldwide. Founded in 1949, FISU organizes various international competitions, including the Summer and Winter Universiades, which are similar to the Olympics but specifically for university athletes. The main goal of FISU is to encourage participation in sports and foster a spirit of friendship and understanding among students from different countries. By supporting events like the Universiade, FISU helps to develop not only athletic skills but also cultural exchange and personal growth among young athletes.
