In principle, ethics violations, abuses within sports organizations and doping offences can all be reported, along with any suspicions. Swiss Sport Integrity is the responsible advice center in Swiss sport for these issues. Following an initial consultation, it will provide information about how to proceed and analyze and pursue any suspected violations, where necessary.
In some cases, external advice centers may be better suited or hold responsibility. A corresponding report should therefore be submitted directly to them, as appropriate:
- Advice and assistance for young people about drug-related issues; Advice center 147 at Pro Juventute
- Pro Juventute for youth leaders and officials concerning questions relating to children and young people; contactable via telephone 058 618 80 80 or e-Mail.
- Suspected manipulation of competitions must be reported to the Swiss Gambling Supervisory Authority (Gespa): Contact form
- Any complaints about the selection process (squad selection etc.) or breaches of federation-specific regulations must be reported directly to the corresponding National Sports Federation.
- In addition to the low-threshold option of anonymously reporting pedocriminal URLs via an online form, www.clickandstop.ch also offers a helpline, provides prevention offers and facilitates better networking among specialists.
- Are you a victim of human trafficking or exploitation yourself or have you made such an observation? The National Hotline against Human Trafficking and Exploitation is there to help you: www.act212.ch/en/hotline
In case of doubt, report the incident or suspicion to Swiss Sport Integrity via the reporting portal or by telephone. Employees of the reporting service will direct you to the appropriate advice center, if required.
