Synopsis

International organisations are as old as human history. It has represented the struggles of nomadic communities to unite on a common cultural denominator in the time left over from the wars they fought with each other and to be ready for possible wars. Today, sport is one of the indicators of socio-economic development and social position of countries. One of the biggest and most widespread effects of sports organizations is that they influence mass phenomena and events and develop their own culture. Especially sports organizations, which are called mega organizations, contribute to the development of employment while developing the sporting infrastructure of countries. In addition, they also contribute to the development of foreign capital and tourism. After the organization is over, it will cause the sports culture to persist more effectively in that region. With the formation of sports culture, people's quality of life and health levels will increase sustainably. Since both cultural structure and sportive structure are in close relationship with each other, the organisation makes positive contributions in terms of architecture and infrastructure both during and after the games.
