World Anti-Doping Agency is a foundation which was established in 1999, whose aim is to fight against drugs in sports. WADA is affiliated with International Olympic Committee. it's key activities are scientific research, education, development of anti-doping capacities and monitoring of the world anti-doping capacities. 

WADA's world anti-doping code are enforced by the UNESCO International Convention Against Doping in Sport.
