The Commissions of the League of Nations

The League of Nations set up a number of commissions which would focus on a particular issue and work with members to solve or develop those issues. There were four main areas which the League of Nations wanted to work:

• The Refugees Committee - worked to get those people who had been made homeless after the First World War, back home
• The Slavery Commission - wanted to abolish Slavery across the entire globe.
• The Health Committee - sought to improve access to healthcare around the world.
• The Mandates Commission - this administered those lands which had been taken off Germany in their former Empire
