In order to meet the requirements of Montenegro’s compliance with the anti-doping requirements according to the International Standard for Compliance with the Code by the signatory, it is also necessary to answer a comprehensive WADA questionnaire, for which the deadline was 28. 6. 2023. After a detailed review of the completed questionnaire with over 260 questions, WADA provides a corrective action plan for NADO.

The Code Compliance Questionnaire is a tool developed by WADA to measure compliance of NADOs to the mandatory requirements of the Code and International Standards. It was developed in collaboration with a number of ADOs and other organizations such as INADO, the Council of Europe, and UNESCO. The Questionnaire is issued to assist NADOs in providing responses and data to a series of questions. All NADOs should answer the questions honestly in order for WADA to conduct an accurate review of their anti-doping program.

NADOs have 3 months to complete and submit the Questionnaire and are required to answer questions based upon their anti-doping programs for the calendar year (January – December) of the requested reporting period, defined in the Questionnaire. The Questionnaire is available in English or French.

In anticipation of the upcoming XXXIII Olympic Games, which will be held in July 2024 in Paris, anti-doping activities are at a high level of attention, appreciating that the period before the Olympic Games is of crucial importance. Namely, the period before the Olympic Games requires the coordinated efforts of numerous participants in the anti-doping field, whose primary goal is for the participating athletes to be subjected to a proportionate testing program before arriving in Paris.

In this regard, the International Olympic Committee has delegated its responsibilities regarding the implementation of the anti-doping program for the Olympic Games to the International Testing Agency (ITA), with the support of WADA to ensure that effective testing is carried out globally through the coordinated efforts of all anti-doping organizations.

All actors in the anti-doping field are obliged to make their contribution in the period before the Olympic Games, and their mutual coordination, work and discipline will represent a cornerstone for healthy sport, fair play based on the deterrent and preventive nature of anti-doping activities.

Since 2014, every year in April, the anti-doping community around the world gathers to celebrate Play True Day – a day dedicated to clean sport and raising awareness among athletes, the sports public and others about the importance of preventing doping. The inspiration for Play True Day comes from an educational conference organized by WADA in 2013, in which 17 Latin American countries participated. What started as a small South American initiative is now a digital campaign that reaches millions of people every year, with the participation of numerous individuals and organizations from around the world. Each year, more and more sports organizations, national anti-doping organizations, and international sports federations are involved in the celebration of this day, to show the unity and solidarity of the anti-doping community in the world through the idea of clean sport. This year, the Anti-Doping Commission is also joining.

In anticipation of the upcoming day of pure sports – Play True Day, which this year is celebrated on April 14, Jovanka Radičević sent a message –
