Anti-Doping Information and Education

Basic Principle and Primary Goal

The basic principle for information and education programmes for doping-free sport is to preserve the spirit of sport, as described in the introduction to the World Anti-Doping Code, from being undermined by doping. The primary goal of the IFF Anti-Doping education and information programmes is prevention.

 

IFF Anti-Doping Education

The aim of the IFF anti-doping education programme is that the players first experience with anti-doping should be through information and education, rather than doping control. The IFF’s anti-doping education programme approach requires cooperation with the national anti-doping organisations in order for the athletes to primarily receive anti-doping education in their own language from the national anti-doping organisation or national association. In addition, E-learning programmes are utilised.
