Final preparations are underway for the Anti-Doping Forum, to be held on Monday, 21 July 2025, at the Centro de Convenções de Dili (CCD). Organized by the National Sports Commission (CND) in collaboration with the Portuguese Anti-Doping Authority (ADoP), the forum will bring together athletes, coaches, students, and sports officials to strengthen Timor-Leste’s commitment to clean sport.
The interactive program will begin with a video presentation of a real-life doping case, followed by an introduction to Anti-Doping Rule Violations (ADRVs). Participants will rotate through five thematic stations covering key topics:
• The global anti-doping system and the role of WADA, NADOs, RADOs, and IFs;
• The Prohibited List, medication and supplement checks, and Therapeutic Use Exemptions (TUEs);
• The health, financial, and career consequences of doping;
• The doping control process and athlete rights and responsibilities;
• Reporting doping, anti-doping education, and where to access reliable information.
The forum will conclude with a Clean Sport Pledge Wall and an interactive quiz with prizes, encouraging participants to publicly commit to the values of fair and doping free sport.
