Over 400 athlete representatives came together in Lausanne, Switzerland, for the forum organized by the IOC Athletes’ Commission. Participants included athlete representatives from 200 National Olympic Committees (NOCs), 54 International Federations (IFs), the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), the International Paralympic Committee, Organising Committees for upcoming Olympic Games, Continental Associations of NOCs, as well as members of the Athletes’ Declaration Steering Committee. The forum provided a platform to address key topics impacting athletes, such as their rights, the promotion of clean sport, and issues surrounding sport integrity.
The ITA was present with an interactive booth, offering athlete representatives the opportunity to connect with ITA staff, expand their knowledge about clean sport, better understand their rights and responsibilities, and show their commitment to clean competition by signing the ITA Wall.
