2007 World Conference on Doping in Sport
(BOCOG)
Updated: 2006-06-16 13:41 The World Anti-Doping Agency
(WADA) would like to announce its upcoming World Conference on Doping in Sport
to be held in Madrid, Spain from 15-17 November 2007. The conference will be
organized with the assistance of the Spanish Government's High Council for
Sport.
The meeting will be the third of its kind after the conference organised by
the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in February 1999 in Lausanne,
Switzerland and the second held by WADA in Copenhagen, Denmark in March 2003.
The first World Conference resulted in the Lausanne Declaration, the document
that led to the creation of WADA; the second Conference led to the acceptance
and introduction of the World Anti-Doping Code (the Code).
Representatives of national governments, related public authorities, the
Olympic Movement, other sports governing bodies, athletes and expert groups will
be invited to attend the Conference.
Program details, invitations, registration information and other logistical
details will be available in early 2007.
