Within the framework of UEFA’s anti-doping educational programme “HatTrick”, an educational seminar was conducted with the National Football Team.

The Georgian Anti-Doping Agency implements an anti-doping education programme in accordance with the World Anti-Doping Code and the International Standard for Education. In line with the requirements of the Standard, education and awareness-raising activities are delivered through programmes tailored to different target groups.

Anti-doping education contributes to increasing awareness, strengthening responsibility, and promoting ethical behavior in sport. It is based not only on rules and prohibitions, but also on in-depth knowledge and the ability to make informed decisions. Therefore, education is considered a key tool in the prevention of doping and the protection of clean sport.
