Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, October 17 (reporter Ma Xiangfei) the education committee of China anti-doping center was established in Beijing today. Members from sports, education, media and medical circles will offer suggestions for anti-doping education. The establishment of the education committee is also one of the achievements of the center in establishing a long-term anti-doping mechanism.
The Education Committee was appointed by Jiang Zhixue, the former director of science and education department of the State Sports General Administration, and the committee members were appointed by the anti-doping center from all walks of life.
The responsibilities of the committee mainly include studying the development plan and development strategy of anti-doping work, putting forward suggestions and opinions on management measures and system reform; Participating in the major policy discussion and formulation of the education work of anti-doping center; participate in and guide anti-doping education planning, academic standard construction, anti-doping education project, etc.; Promote the cooperation at home and abroad related to anti-doping education and the establishment and improvement of management system and operation mechanism; study the evaluation standards and methods of anti-doping work effect.
Chen Zhiyu, secretary of the Party committee and deputy director of the anti-doping center, said that China’s anti-doping work has made great progress in recent years. Last year alone, the number of inspections reached 17338, creating a record high and determining 92 violations, it acts as a deterrent to the illegal behavior of stimulants. But at the same time, we should see that anti-doping work still has a long way to go. Many athletes have insufficient awareness of resisting doping automatically. In the long run, the principle of “prevention first, Education First” cannot be shaken.
Chen Zhiyu said that anti-doping should not only improve its ability to crack down on violations, but also establish a long-term mechanism to perfect and perfect the theory and system of anti-doping. The establishment of the education committee is one of the links in establishing a long-term mechanism.
Chairman Jiang Zhixue said that it was a good attempt to mobilize and integrate social resources to do anti-doping work led by the anti-doping center. In the past, many social forces were absorbed in the team of inspectors to check for stimulants. Now the education committee has also increased social forces, which will become a good boost to anti-doping work.
