∙ 8y agoThere is no 'organization', but there is an international treaty: the Antarctic Treaty. It establishes all land and ice south of 60 degrees S as a place where the scientific study of the health of planet earth is conducted, with science shared by all signatory and nations that ratify the treaty.

∙ 8y agoIf you're thinking of the International Geophysical Year -- IGY -- that took place in 1957 - 1958, the agreement for this event was made among a group of top scientists in the world.
Based on past International Polar Year events -- 1882-1883 and 1932-1933 -- the scientists agreed that '57-'58 would be a good period for the event, given the sun's maximum solar activities.
Specifically, in Antarctica, "The International Council of Scientific Unions, a parent body, broadened the proposals from polar studies to geophysical research. More than 70 existing national scientific organizations then formed IGY committees, and participated in the cooperative effort." (from Wikipedia)
