Co-creating antidoping educational resources for athletes with intellectual impairments

The aim of the proposal is to collaborate with athletes who have intellectual impairment (II) to co-create anti-doping educational resources that better serve their needs. The project will be conducted through 3 phases.

In Phase 1, they will establish National (NWG) and International (IWG) working groups of athletes with II to cocreate a survey that is disseminated to athletes and asks them what the most pressing educational topics require adaptation and how they prefer to be taught.

In Phase 2, they will disseminate the survey to athletes with II to establish the anti-doping educational topics requiring adaptation and how these should be taught.

In Phase 3, they will co-create anti-doping educational resources on the topics identified in Phase 2 with NWG and IWG and disseminate these to international and national organizations.
