Athletes’ Rights and Responsibilities

Declaration

Prevention of Harassment

and abuse in sport

4 IOC Commissions support the PHAS initiatives, including

the IOC Athletes and Athletes Entourage commissions.

Each of these Commissions are represented in the IOC PHAS Working Group

Chaired by HRH Prince Feisal.

Background information

HRH Prince Feisal Yelena Isinbayeva

IOC Athletes’ Commission

representative

Dr Carlo Bagutti

IOC Athletes’ Entourage

Commission representative

The IOC PHAS initiatives started in 2004

• In all sports disciplines

• At all levels of participation

Why is this?

Sport is a microcosm of society, perpetuated by:

• Lack of education – what constitutes harassment and abuse?

• Hierarchical nature of sport

• Win at all costs mentality

• Lack of safeguarding policies and procedures

Harassment and abuse occurs worldwide

Harassment and abuse

Key initiatives

The IOC Olympic Games and Youth Olympic

Games-Time FrameworksImplemented for the first time at Rio and Buenos Aires. Cases can be

reported to the Safeguarding Officer who will be at every edition of

the Olympic and Youth Olympic Games

IOC Athlete Safeguarding ToolkitTo assist IFs and NOCs to implement their own

Safeguarding policies and procedures

Educational courses and materialsAvailable on Athlete365

What can we do?

Everyone has the right to safe sport,

and a responsibility

We can:

• Educate ourselves in this area,

• Use our voice to ensure that all sports organisations

implement policies and procedures,

• Recognise that the onus to report does not lie solely on

the victim,

• Witnessing harassment and abuse and not reporting it

can further silence those who are affected by it.

Why IPACS?

• The Athletes deserve corruption-free sport:

• Corruption-free competitions

• Corruption-free sport organisations

• Corruption is a crime. Thus, the fight against corruption

is primarily the responsibility of Governments.

Sport organisations are responsible for its prevention

and also for taking proactive measures when a

corruption case arises.

• IPACS is a new initiative which aims to facilitate

interaction on this crucial matter.

IPACS in action

• Platform set up in 2017 for interactions between sports and

Governments, with the support of inter-governmental agencies

specialised in the fight against corruption for setting up pragmatic tools.

• 3 Partners in IPACS:

• Governments, responsible for law enforcement agencies (as

of today, following the leadership of UK, 30 countries

including Australia, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Argentina, Brazil,

US, Canada, Germany, Italy, France)

• Sports organisations, responsible for their sport (i.e. IOC,

ANOC, GAISF, ASOIF, AOIWF, IPC, CGF)

• Inter-governmental agencies, to support and facilitate the

cooperation (UNODC, OECD-G20, Council of Europe)
