One of the staunchest opponents of ethical malpractices in sport, the Canadian IOC-member Richard W. Pound, has just confirmed that he will join the EASM 2012 conference in Aalborg, Denmark, and give a keynote address entitled "Corruption in Sport is a Global Problem: It Needs a Global Solution".

WADA has broken new ground in getting governments and the sports movement together in a major effort to safeguard sport’s values and go up against a threat that ranges from individual cheating to organised crime.
