Anti-Doping: EADIn update

The European Anti-Doping Initiative (EADIn), in which European University Sports Association (EUSA ) is one of the main partners, has launched the official website http://www.anti-doping-initiative.eu. The website will be updated with the useful information and the tools to develop and encourage anti-doping education in sport, with emphasis on youth.

From June 22 to 26 a very important part of the project - youth training camp - is taking place in Burgausen, Gemany. After kick-off and selection of the Anti-Doping Junior Ambassadors (ADJA) by each partner of the project, the ADJA will bring the experts, victims of doping abuse in young age and researchers together, to provide a quality anti-doping training for the young athletes, ambassadors of the project. Publication "Sport without doping, a training tool for anti-doping junior ambassadors" has been made available for the participants of the camp. The publication will later be updated and made publicly available.
