Tags: , , , , , , , ,


November 15, 2012 – The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) has released its 2011-2012 Annual Report. We encourage you to read our Annual Report to learn more about the exciting initiatives that we worked on this year. As always, we welcome any comments or questions you may have.

“We see ourselves as contributing in three interconnected ways to fair, safe and open sport in Canada. The first way is through our role in protecting the integrity of sport and our administration of the CADP for, and on behalf of, Canadian sport – part of our “acute response system.” The second way is our upstream work on preventing doping and other ethical issues by helping to activate a principle-driven sport system at all levels – our long term “prevention strategy.” And the third way is our role in advocating and facilitating an ethical orientation and approach to all issues in sport. This relies on the use of values and principles to guide decision-making when the rules of sport do not or cannot.”

The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport Gets Makeover

May 13, 2011 (Ottawa, ON) – In 2010, the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport underwent a strategic planning process to uncover and craft the story of its vision and mission. Once that story was articulated verbally, it was necessary to bring it to life visually, with the creation of a new brand identity for the organization.

The logo at the centre of this new brand identity celebrates the multitude of voices that come together around sport, capturing the energy of open dialogue and spirited debate. The use of different colours and type sizes reflects the multicultural landscape of Canada and the rich diversity of athletes that play and compete within it. Still, despite their differences, these various graphic elements fit harmoniously together to form the logo as a whole, conveying the convergence of opinions and ideas that results from honest discourse.

Finally, the use of the organization’s full name – instead of the CCES acronym – conveys the leadership and authority that people expect from the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport, as it looks to continually elevate the conscience of Canadian sport.

The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport is an independent, national, not-for profit organization. We recognize that true sport can make a great difference for individuals, communities and our country. We are committed to working collaboratively to activate a values based and principle-driven sport system; protecting the integrity of sport from the negative forces of doping and other unethical threats; and advocating for sport that is fair, safe and open to everyone.
