14 October 2019: Global Athlete has today announced that it has partnered with FairSport and Play the Game to launch the first ever Global Athlete Survey.

The Survey, which has been produced in association with renowned experience management company, Qualtrics, will offer members of the international athlete community the opportunity to have their say on issues in sport ranging from athlete rights to financial compensation and abuse to anti-doping.

The Survey aims to help gauge the views of where athletes may want to see change in sport, following a growing surge in athletes speaking up for positive change throughout international sport. The Survey has been sent to athletes today, with results to be published publicly.

Director General of Global Athlete, Rob Koehler, said: “As we continue to take an athletes first approach, receiving direct feedback from athletes and athlete groups will help guide a stronger athlete-led movement. Athletes are the number one stakeholder in sport as a result their views must be seen as a priority.”
