At the second national convention on combating violence in sport, Roxana Maracineanu, Minister Delegate for Sport, reviewed the work of the dedicated unit.
It was therefore noted that, despite the health crisis, the strategy had been implemented and delivered significant results throughout the year.
Numerous measures have been taken:
- “Background checks on coaches and volunteer officials are now a reality.
- Almost 80% of government sports officers working with minors have received their professional cards and have therefore had their criminal records checked.
- Training on “ethics and integrity” is now available for sports coaches and educators.
- Information sharing between juvenile prosecutors’ offices and the regional services of the ministry responsible for sport has been strengthened.
- A government workshop on sexual violence in sport has been established.
- Awareness-raising sessions have also continued throughout the country at regional level.”
