    Launch of the “Be a Guardian” initiative 

    The FEI will launch the "Be a Guardian" initiative today, calling on community members to embrace their roles as guardians of FEI horses. A full press release will be issued shortly and can be found here.

    The ‘Be a Guardian’ initiative represents a significant shift in the FEI's approach to equine care, emphasising the importance of horse welfare.

    Based on the concept of guardianship, the Equine Ethics and Wellbeing Commission created a comprehensive document highlighting six priority areas and 30 recommendations to improve the welfare of sport horses.

    The FEI has since developed an Equine Welfare Strategy Action Plan to address the priorities identified by the Commission.

    Supported by a CHF 1 million allocation approved by the FEI Board in June 2024, this plan aims to enhance the wellbeing of FEI horses through robust rules, guidelines, educational programmes, and various initiatives.

    The goal is to respect the natural needs of horses in international equestrian sports, fostering a global commitment to equine welfare and ensuring that horses receive the care and respect they deserve.

    We urge our National Federations to embrace this call to action, actively promote this shift in perspective, and recognise the responsibility we all share in being the guardians of our beloved horses.

    Updated FEI Event Schedule policy regarding Officials

    We would like to kindly remind everyone that all FEI Officials must have “passed” their annual CES Online Assessment to officiate at FEI Events.

    The CES Online Assessment not only ensures integrity at all FEI Events, as well as the validity of the results, it is also testimony to FEI’s commitment in providing services of the highest standard to the athletes, the public and the sport.

    In order to ensure that all FEI Events take place according the FEI Rules and Regulations, and to proactively prevent potential issues from arising during competitions, we have updated the FEI Event Schedule Policy.

    As of 1 August 2024, the following FEI Event Schedule Policy will apply:

    Officials must have “passed” their CES Online Assessment of the current year to be added to schedules of events taking place after the 31 March.

    For information, the officiating/maintenance year runs from the 15 December of each year and until the 15 December of the following year.

    • Every year, from 16 December to 31 March (transition period), Officials with an open function can still officiate without having passed the annual CES Online Assessment of the current year.
    • Every year, from 31 March to 14 December (regulated period), Officials must have passed the CES Online Assessment of the current year to officiate, and to keep their function open.

    You can find all information here on Inside.FEI.org.

    Keeping sport fair is a top priority for the IOC and for the FEI. As the manipulation of sports competitions has become an area of great concern in recent years within the sports world, the FEI remains committed to fighting all forms of cheating that threaten both the integrity and the essence of sport.
    It is important to note that this information concerns not only Athletes and Officials, but any person accredited to the Games as the Athletes' Support Personnel, such as trainers, owners, grooms, veterinarians, etc… Furthermore, Executive Board and Board members, as well as their guests are also concerned.
    It is the personal responsibility of everyone involved in the Games, to be aware of the Olympic Movement Code on the Prevention of Manipulation of Competitions including, without limitation, what conduct constitutes a violation of the Code and to comply with the Code's requirements.
    Always remember these four basic Rules:
    Rule #1: Don’t fix the competition and always do your best
    Rule #2: Don’t bet on your own sport or any event at the Olympic Games
    Rule #3: Don’t share information about health issues and sport tactics
    Rule #4: Speak up! If you witness or suspect competition manipulation, you must report it.
