General facts

At the second International Congress for Life-Saving and First Aid to the Injured at Vienna it was decided, in principle, to establish the International Association for Life-Saving and First Aid to the Injured. At the third International Congress, held at Amsterdam, the Association was definitely established. (HB 1929) Au premier Congrès international de sauvetage et de premiers secours en cas d'accidents, tenu à Francfort-sur-le-Main, le vœu fut émis de fonder une association internationale. Pendant le deuxième Congrès, à Vienne, un projet de statuts fut discuté dans une commission spéciale. Le troisième Congrès international, qui devait en décider, n'a pas eu lieu, à cause de la guerre, avant 1926. L'Association internationale fut alors définitivement constituée, à Amsterdam. Depuis, la Commission permanente a préparé le quatrième Congrès international (Copenhague, 1934), où les statuts et le règlement intérieur furent adoptés et la Commission permanente élue. (HB 1936) At the First International Congress on Life-Saving and First Aid to the Injured, held at Frankfort-on-Main, the foundation of an international association was recommended. During the Second Congress, in Vienna, draft statutes were discussed by a special committee. The Third International Congress, which was to have taken a decision in the matter, could not take place before 1926, on account of the war. The International Association was then definitely established at Amsterdam. The Permanent Commission subsequently prepared the Fourth International Congress (Copenhagen 1934), at which the statutes and rules of procedure were adopted and the Permanent Commission elected.
