Bloc main.blocs.text

Overview

The OSIC Sport Environment Assessment Index (“SEA Index”) provides general status information regarding Assessments initiated by the OSIC in accordance with the OSIC Guidelines Regarding Sport Environment Assessments.

The SEA Index supports the overall SEA objective to offer proactive, transparent and preventative measures to alleged systemic issues related to the UCCMS in order to cultivate safe, welcoming and inclusive sport environments.

In line with this objective, observations, recommendations, and opportunities for improvement resulting from relevant Assessments will be provided through the SEA Index once available (i.e. through Assessment Report(s)). The SEA Index is not a registry of imposed sanctions regarding applicable respondents. You can find more information about the OSIC Sanctions Registry here.

As Assessment(s) advance through the SEA process, general information will be provided through the SEA Index (e.g. impacted environment(s), nature of alleged systemic issues, appointed Assessor(s), general Assessment methodology, estimated timelines, invited groups of participants, Assessment report, monitoring report, etc.).

In accordance with confidentiality parameters applicable to SEAs (see section 8 here), the OSIC will not comment on or provide other information on any active Assessment and/or other ongoing matter.
