It will also introduce members to the International Partnership against Corruption in Sport (IPACS), a multi-stakeholder initiative which brings together sports organisations, governments, and international organisations who have combined efforts to address corruption in sport.  

The webinar will go on to provide members with practical case studies of cooperation between sports organisations and criminal justice authorities, including the International Olympic Committee’s Joint Integrity Unit model. Finally, it will provide members with a preview of a forthcoming guide on the prosecution of bribery in sport.
