Overview
The Commission on Youth and Sports of the Indian Ocean (French: Commission de la Jeunesse et des Sports de l'Océan Indien - CJSOI) is a regional intergovernmental commission founded in 1988 following a meeting of the CONFEJES (Conférence des Ministres de la Jeunesse et des Sports) one year earlier. It objectives are to promote friendship ties between young people from Member States and foster regional cooperation, sporting culture and development of youth. The CJSOI Games were introduced in 1994 by the Ministerial Committee of the Commission de la Jeunesse et des Sports de l'Ocean Indien. Participating countries are: Comoros, Djibouti, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mayotte, Reunion and the Seychelles. The main objective of the Games, organised every two years, is to enable youth aged between 14 and 17 years participate in international sporting events as well as promote cultural exchanges amongst the member islands/countries of the Indian Ocean.
