The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) is the international independent organization created in 1999 to promote, coordinate and monitor the fight against doping in sport in all its forms. The Agency is composed and funded equally by the sports movement and governments of the world. Its key activities include scientific research, education, development of anti-doping capacities and monitoring of the World Anti-Doping Code – the first document harmonizing regulations regarding anti-doping in all sports and all countries.
The World Anti-Doping Code (Code) is the core document that harmonizes anti-doping policies, rules and regulations within sport organizations and among public authorities around the world. It works in conjunction with eight International Standards which aim to foster consistency among anti-doping organizations in various areas.
The 2021 World Anti-Doping Code is available for purchase on Amazon.ca and Amazon.com.
The International Standards are:
The International Standard for Testing and Investigations (ISTI)
The International Standard for Laboratories (ISL)
The International Standard for Therapeutic Use Exemptions (ISTUE)
The International Standard for the Prohibited List
The International Standard for the Protection of Privacy and Personal Information (ISPPPI)
The International Standard for Code Compliance by Signatories (ISCCS)
The International Standard for Education (ISE)
The International Standard for Results Management (ISRM)
