Critère de référence pour la gouvernance de l'IPACS

Parmi les quatre task forces créées par l’IPACS pour améliorer la coordination et les mesures de lutte contre la corruption dans la gouvernance du sport, la Task force 3 s’est donnée comme objectifs de développer un critère de référence pour la gouvernance du sport, reconnu à la fois par le mouvement sportif international et par les gouvernements, et applicable aux niveaux national et international, ainsi que de présenter des options pour donner des conseils, apporter un soutien et contrôler le respect du critère de référence aux niveaux international et national.

Ce critère de référence a été approuvé en 2020 et comporte les cinq dimensions citées ci-dessous, accompagnées pour chacune d'entre elles de dix recommendations et leurs lignes directrices.
