CSCF Foundation for Sport Integrity and Ministry of Youth and Sports of Bulgaria jointly hosted a landmark conference on combating sport and esport crimes in Sofia.

by with No Comment Uncategorized


Sofia, Bulgaria – March 6th and 7th, 2024 – In a significant step towards combating manipulation and criminality in sports and esports, Bulgaria hosted the 5th Awareness Raising Practical Session under Integrisport 3.0 frame. Co-organized by the Ministry of Youth and Sports of Bulgaria and CSCF Sport Integrity Group, the event focused on bolstering capabilities across law enforcement, judiciary, sports organizations, and ministries to protect sports integrity across Bulgaria.

About the Integrisport Project

Integrisport 3.0 is a project established to provide theoretical and practical support for law enforcement and judiciaries to tackle sport manipulation and crimes in sports in the six program countries: Austria, Bulgaria, Estonia, Greece, Romania, and Spain, co-financed by the European Union.


About the event

The Awareness Raising Practical Sessions was inaugurated by Professor Daniela Dasheva, Deputy Minister of Youth and Sports, and Mr. Hristo Stefanov, Deputy Minister of Interior, highlighting the government's commitment to eradicating corruption in sports and providing a crucial support for propelling the project forward. They expressed the importance of educating law enforcement officials and warmly embraced Integrisport 3.0 project, which is dedicated to addressing this critical issue.

The event has witnessed an unprecedented level of participation from a diverse group of stakeholders, drawing 110 attendees that included over 70 individuals from different departments of the National Police and the Prosecution Office. Noteworthy among these were representatives from various sports federations—such as the National Football Federation, the National Basketball Federation, the National Tennis Federation, the Bulgarian Esport Federation, and the Bulgarian Olympic Committee —as well as members from relevant ministries and regulatory authorities. High-level representatives and operational staff from these entities have convened to deliberate on strategies for maintaining the integrity of sports and esports, addressing the multifaceted challenges these fields face.

The CSCF content experts, along with those from our project partners Ministry of Youth and Sports of Bulgaria, ULIS, Play Fair Code, and our supporting partner FIFPRO, have provided invaluable insights during the event sessions. Their expertise, combined with the contributions of the Maltese Police Force and international bodies such as Europol and Interpol, has enhanced the collaborative efforts to effectively address the complexities of combating crime in both sports and esports.


The event was attended by students from the Bulgarian Police Academy. These active students not only contributed to the discussions but, by learning about the topics the event offered, ensured the sustainability of the knowledge of the future Bulgarian Police gained in the topic.

After the conference, a side event took place within the framework of the Integrisport 3.0 project, where members of the Bulgarian National Platform and CSCF met to discuss the possible reactivation of the national platform and further building its foundations. The participating members, including the Ministry of Youth and Sports, the National Police, the National Revenue Office, and the Prosecution Service, reported positively on the next steps for activating the platform.

“To the young sports hopefuls and esteemed educators from the National Academy of Sciences, I emphasize a fundamental truth: while results undoubtedly hold significance in the realm of sports, let us not forget that true victory is forged through the crucible of relentless dedication and unwavering effort. Success is not merely an outcome but a journey, where hard work becomes the steadfast companion on the path to greatness." - Prof. Dasheva, Deputy Minister of Youth and Sports of Bulgaria.

Hristo Stefanov, Deputy Minister of Interior noted that "We accept sports as a challenge, spirit and strength, as an alternative for our children to have a cleaner and better environment in which to build themselves. But the coin has two sides, and sometimes sport, as a fair game, faces the temptation to manipulate the results. Then, in the style of sports terminology, the game is transferred to the field of law enforcement authorities, who are required to find the truth, so that the main idea of fair play can be fulfilled,"

Norbert Rubicsek, CSCF Foundation for Sport Integrity ‘s Director, shared his insights, stating, “Within the context of the Integrisport 3.0 project, our aim extends beyond mere acknowledgment of these issues; it is about fostering a comprehensive understanding and actionable strategies. By convening representatives from various sectors, including law enforcement agencies, judiciaries, ministries, sports federations, and other essential stakeholders, we create a forum for robust dialogue and knowledge exchange. Through these exchanges, we illuminate the multifaceted nature of sports manipulation and crime in sports and underscore the urgent need for coordinated action. The active involvement of ministers and stakeholders is pivotal in amplifying awareness on crime in sports, sports manipulation, and other integrity threats. Together, we are driving crucial conversations and collaborative actions to safeguard the purity of sports and esports."

This conference served as a crucial platform for dialogue, knowledge exchange, and strategic planning in the battle against corruption and manipulation within the realm of sports and esports.

IACA and CSCF Sport Integrity Group Announce New Partnership on Promoting Integrity in Sport

by with No Comment Uncategorized


On 2 Nov 2023, the International Anti-Corruption Academy (IACA) and Counter Sport Corruption Foundation (CSCF) Sport Integrity Group have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) establishing the framework for both institutions to cooperate promoting integrity and anti-corruption compliance in sport.

Speaking on the new partnership, Mr. Jaroslaw Pietrusiewicz, Officer-in-Charge of the International Anti-Corruption Academy (IACA) stated:

“IACA is willing to join forces with the international sport community and share its knowledge and expertise in anti-corruption and compliance to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of integrity and compliance programmes in countries and sports organizations. We want to involve various stakeholders to deliver anti-corruption education and equip our partners with the needed tools to eliminate corruption in sport. We are looking forward to developing such activities with CSCF”.

 

Mr. Norbert Rubicsek, Director at CSCF – Sport Integrity Group gave remarks during the announcement of this new partnership and stated:

“As the growing number of alarming cases reveals, the realm of sports is increasingly being compromised by wrongdoers. From the highest governing bodies to local clubs, there's an urgent need to fortify against such infiltration. We at CSCF Sport Integrity Group are dedicated to empowering these entities, not just in safeguarding themselves, but in actively standing up against these malicious actors.

Our partnership with IACA brings forth a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach, offering a robust set of tools and educational resources designed to strengthen regulations and policies. This collaboration is a significant step towards eradicating bad practices and restoring integrity within the sports domain.”

The promotion of integrity, anti-corruption and compliance in sport has become one of the priorities in the international anti-corruption agenda. In the UNGASS Political Declaration “Our common commitment to effectively addressing challenges and implementing measures to prevent and combat corruption and strengthen international cooperation”, states declared safeguarding sport from corruption as one of their goals. Also, the G20 put this theme on its agenda.

In 2023, IACA started a new research project on integrity and anti-corruption compliance in sport. The aims of this research project are to identify main corruption risks and typologies of corrupt misconduct in various sports and develop an overview of best practices in promoting integrity, implementing anticorruption compliance management systems and whistleblower hotlines in international and national sports organizations, professional leagues, and clubs.

For the past seven years, CSCF has been at the forefront of protecting sports from potential infiltration. Through its extensive programmes, CSCF has provided comprehensive support in tackling sport manipulation, corruption in sports, safeguarding, doping, and whistleblowing not only to governmental organizations such as law enforcement agencies, judiciaries, and ministries but also to international and national sports organizations. Notably, CSCF 's programmes have been implemented and utilized in over 200 countries worldwide through transnational projects and activities, showcasing their global impact and effectiveness.

ABOUT IACA

Vienna, Austria – The 3rd ARPS under the IntegriSport 3.0 umbrella was co-organized by CSCF in collaboration with our Austrian partner Play Fair Code, Austria – the National Association for ‘Integrity in Sport’. The event was held in close cooperation with the Austria Ministry of the Interior and the Criminal Intelligence Service Austria at the beautiful venue House of Sports (Haus des Sports) in Vienna, on 4th and 5th December, 2023.

Integrisport 3.0 is a project established to provide theoretical and practical support for law enforcement and judiciaries in the six program countries: Austria, Bulgaria, Estonia, Greece, Romania, and Spain, co-financed by the European Union. The ARPS in Vienna was the third event under the present project and the 16th edition under the successful Integrisport program, which has reached nearly two-thirds of EU countries' law enforcement and judiciaries in the last 4.5 years. CSCF is dedicated to fortifying the integrity of sports and as coordinator and content provider for this ARPS, our commitment was further strengthened to develop the capacities of the stakeholders across Europe.


The training event was first of its kind in case of Austria where such a multi-stakeholder cooperation was created and a training event on topics related to sports manipulation and related crimes in sports was imparted to more than 45 investigators from across Austria, from multiple departments of the Criminal Intelligence Service Austria, prosecutors, and judicial officers.

The main goal of the event was to introduce the participants to the key topics related to possible crime in sports, for helping them get aware of the issues, to broaden their knowledge and allow them make connections to their own work with the possible sports manipulation issues, thereby positively contributing towards the preservation of sports integrity and to strengthen their fight against manipulation in sport.

The symposium, i.e., the Awareness Raising Practical Session (ARPS) was part of the IntegriSport 3.0 project and organized by CSCF Foundation for Sports Integrity, the coordinator and content experts of the project, along with Play Fair Code, Austria, the country partners of the project. The event saw more than 30 speakers, presenters and panelists, from Austria and also international experts, from diverse sectors to provide the best possible and most updated knowledge, which would help these police officers and investigators to understand better the multifaceted challenge of sport manipulation.

It was interesting to hear Mr. Franz Schwarzenbacher, who emphasized the event's significance, stating, "It was a perfect opportunity for us to spread knowledge, expertise and know-how with our colleagues from all around Austria. Sharing the various investigation approaches is key for both, raising awareness and a robust understanding of the issue.”

Adding to the above, Ms. Barbara Pusca, Head of Sub-Department Training, Knowledge and Information Management, Criminal Intelligence Service Austria said, “Our cooperation with the Play Fair Code is a new approach for us and clearly adds value to our training and education efforts for our colleagues.
