The debate will take place on the second day of the global Forum, which is the world's leading platform focusing on sport as a driver of social and economic change, held on December 9-11 at the Aspire Academy in Doha.

Former police Chief Ronnie Flanagan, who has chaired the ICC's Anti-Corruption Unit since 2010, said: "I look forward to sharing my experiences of dealing with corruption in cricket at Doha GOALS. I've seen first-hand how the issue can infiltrate sport across international boundaries and have identified that collaboration between stakeholders is vital in the fight against illegal betting and match-fixing."
"Doha GOALS is an opportunity to share best practice with a community of policymakers and government officials, heads of business Cheap Men's New Balance 574 Burgundy White Shoes , athletes, NGOs and students and help define better methods for prevention, detection and punishment to combat corruption in sport."

Cherie Blair said: "Sport is such a force for good; it brings together families and neighbours, unites regions and countries, and encourages competition between groups and nations that otherwise might not engage with each other. It's also a brilliant tool for motivating young people Cheap Women's New Balance 574 Jade Green Shoes , keeping us healthy and building unity.
"That's why the rise of corruption in sport through activities like match-fixing is so serious: its enormous negative impact puts all these gains at risk. Corruption in sport is a global problem that pays little respect to national borders and the jurisdiction of domestic courts. The power of the internet and organised international criminal syndicates mean that we cannot, and must not, turn a blind eye to this menace. There must be a united international response from sporting organisations, regulators and governments if we are not to lose some of the magic that sport brings."
