Nordic Collaboration
Thanks to the use of common languages and cultural understanding, the Nordic countries were able to engage in a close anti-doping cooperation a couple of decades ago, and this collaboration is still going strong today.
Co-operation has enabled the countries to harmonise testing practices, develop educational activities, collaborate on research projects and seminars, and create common policies for international activities. The Nordic co-operation has been particularly significant in creating quality management systems for testing.
The Nordic countries have also signed an agreement which gives the signatories the right to test athletes from any of the party countries at any time, any place.
The Nordic countries meet at least once a year.
The Nordic countries part of the agreement are:
Denmark: Anti Doping Danmark (ADD)
Iceland: Íþrótta- og Ólympíusamband Íslands
Sweden: Riksidrottsförbundet
Finland: Suomen Antidopingtoimikunta ADT ry
Norway: Stiftelsen Antidoping Norge (ADN)
