Section: News & Results, Track & Field, Drugs In Sports
Final preparations are underway for the Third World Conference on Doping in Sport organised by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) which will open in Madrid tomorrow, Thursday 15 November, and run until the 17 November. The official IAAF delegation will be led by IAAF President Lamine Diack and IAAF Council Member Abby Hoffman.
The chief topic of discussion will be the revision of the World Anti-Doping Code (Code) - the core document adopted in 2003 by the Sport Movement and Governments of the world as the framework for the global harmonised fight against doping in sport, and the document upon which the IAAF bases it’s own Anti-Doping Rules.
The process of revising the Code is intended to fine-tune its provisions based on the experience gained to date and to strengthen global efforts against doping in sport. The draft revised Code will be presented to WADA’s Foundation Board for approval on 17 November 2007
