The WADA Foundation Board confirmed that the Agency would receive an increase in its annual budget. Following last year’s slight increase of 1%, the Board confirmed that WADA would receive an increase of 3% for 2015. This increase will enable WADA to advance two prioritized core activities: the development of the new ADAMS platform, ADAMS 2016, and the need to advance anti-doping programs of all signatories in compliance with the 2015 World Anti-Doping Code. “WADA is very appreciative of this budget increase, particularly given the economic difficulties experienced in many parts of the world. It will allow us to continue our progress as we enter the next chapter of anti-doping,” said WADA-president Sir Craig Reedie.
