Over the last few years, Commonwealth Sport has dedicated its strategic planning to strengthen the Movement’s Governance and Integrity Framework
In 2021 the Code of Ethics and Conduct was published and associated integrity framework policies and procedures were developed ahead of the Birmingham Commonwealth Games
Between 2020-2022 NGO and advocacy partnerships were established linked to realising Commonwealth Sport’s vision on issues impacting integrity (e.g. ethics, match fixing, anti-corruption), sustainability (e.g. equality, inclusion, climate change, education) and human rights (e.g. safeguarding, treatment of labour, ethical sourcing, anti-discrimination).
In addition, ahead of B2022, Commonwealth Sport empowered its athletes to be advocates for integrity, encouraging them to uphold and cherish the principle of the level playing field and connect people across the world through a shared passion for sport and a sense of common purpose.
