The Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) will host a Clean Sport seminar in Hong Kong during the second edition of the Asia Horse Week. With the two-day seminar (Feb. 14-15), the FEI said it hopes to provide a clear understanding of the equine and human anti-doping regulations and procedures.

“Increasing awareness and education is a major part of our work towards a doping-free environment in equestrian sport,” FEI President Ingmar De Vos said. “The Asia Horse Week brings together an impressive cross section of the equestrian community, making it the perfect opportunity to educate athletes and their support staff.”

Speakers will include FEI Veterinary Director Göran Akerström, DVM, and FEI Veterinary Advisor Caterina Termine, BSc (Hons), BVSc, Cert. AVP, MRCVS, as well as and other industry experts. The plenary sessions will be open to all Asia Horse Week participants and technical discussions will be reserved for veterinarians
