NADA India has previously created extensive anti-doping education and awareness modules in Universal Design of Learning (UDL) for athletes with disabilities. UDL is a multi-modal framework to improve and optimize teaching and learning for all persons using sign language visual representation, transcribed subtitles and content audio. Some materials, which were previously exclusively available in print, are now available in Braille and audio forms as well. Furthermore, NADA India has held sensitization training for Dope Control Officers (DCO) who collect samples from athletes with disabilities, as well as upgraded the DCO kit for these athletes.
