Reminder: WADA's 2019 Annual Symposium

13 - 14 March 2019
Lausanne, Switzerland
Registration opens end November

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) wishes to remind you that the 15th edition of its Annual Symposium will be held on Wednesday, 13 March and Thursday, 14 March 2019 at the SwissTech Convention Center in Lausanne, Switzerland. Contrary to recent years, the Symposium will be a two day event versus three in light of the World Conference on Doping in Sport that will be held in November 2019, in Katowice, Poland.

The WADA Symposium, which is the main event on the annual global anti-doping calendar, is a unique and practical event that offers anti-doping stakeholders the opportunity to gather, interact and learn from one another. The Symposium is designed for anti-doping practitioners from International Federations, National and Regional Anti-Doping Organizations and Major Event Organizers; representatives from Governments, Athlete Commissions, WADA-accredited laboratories and Athlete Passport Management Units; as well as, other stakeholders such as the media, researchers and service providers that are integral to clean sport. 

Please note that further details, including a draft agenda and logistical information, will be provided when registration opens end November 2018.

In the meantime, feel free to send any questions or input related to the Symposium to WADA’s Event Manager, Ms. Anaïs Rodriguez, at anais.rodriguez@wada-ama.org.
