WADA

WADA, or the World Anti-Doping Agency, is an international organization established to promote fair play in sports by preventing doping—using substances or methods that enhance athletic performance unfairly. It sets rules, coordinates testing, and promotes education to ensure athletes compete honestly. WADA’s goal is to protect athletes' health and maintain the integrity of sports competitions worldwide. It collaborates with sports organizations, governments, and laboratories to monitor compliance and enforce anti-doping policies, ensuring that victories are earned through genuine effort and talent, not unscrupulous drug use.
