 Webinar description:

In this webinar, Dr Lennie Waite, licensed psychologist, Certified Mental Performance Consultant and Olympian, will explore protective factors that can reduce athletes’ vulnerability to doping and support their commitment to clean sport. Drawing on research showing that doping is shaped by a balance of risk and protective influences, rather than a single cause, this session will highlight key buffers, including the importance of an identity beyond sport. Combining her elite athletic experience with psychological expertise, Dr Waite will translate this evidence into practical strategies to help athletes strengthen resilience, navigate pressure, and build a well-rounded identity beyond performance. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions live during the webinar. 
 
 As always, the webinar will be delivered in English with simultaneous translation available in Arabic (العربية), French (français), Russian (русский), and Spanish (español).

Clean sport education is a cornerstone for clean sport. As a strategy measure, education aims to empower athletes and others to play clean, and to encourage behaviours in line with the principles and values of clean sport.
