  • ICRC Duty of Care: Elements of Definition
    ICRC Duty of Care: elements of definition Definition “Duty of care” (DoC) is a legal concept that comes from common law and can be defined as a legal obligation requiring adherence to a standard of reasonable care while performing any acts that could foreseeably harm others. Another definition of DoC would be a legal obligation to act towards others with prudence and vigilance in order to prevent any risk of foreseeable damage. The (legal) consequence of a breach of such a duty is a legal liability imposed upon the author (of the breach) to compensate the victim for any losses they incur. DoC entails an obligation of means (obligation de moyens) as opposed to an obligation of result (obligation de résultat). This means that the author must take all appropriate measures and behave in an appropriate way in order to avoid causing harm to third parties. This being said, the fact that harm is done does not necessarily mean that the duty of care was breached (or, in other words that the author was negligent), as certain events are beyond the control of the author (because they were unforeseeable or unavoidable despite proper care being taken). The ICRC’s DoC obligations towards the defined population hence depend on the nature of the relationship between the ICRC and the concerned population (employees, accompanying dependents, Movement partners, external contractual partners) and the relevant (legal and contractual) provisions applicable to such relationship. Content The actual measure, scope or content of the “care” that is required in each situation depends primarily on two factors: (i) the relationship between the parties and (ii) the applicable law.

You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

  • An Open Letter to USA Swimming and Its CEO Tim Hinchey Fix the Cause
    An Open Letter to USA Swimming and its CEO Tim Hinchey Fix the Cause of Your Sexual Abuse Epidemic, Not Just the Symptoms For decades, USA Swimming has treated the sexual abuse of minor swimmers as a “symptom” by focusing treatment on the coach. This treatment has primarily consisted of covering up for the criminal sexual behavior of its member coaches. This widespread cover up within USA Swimming has been well chronicled1. This Open Letter is demanding that Mr. Tim Hinchey, CEO of USA Swimming, fix the root cause of the sexual abuse epidemic which continues to afflict the sport of swimming. Having been deeply involved in the handling of sex abuse claims against USA Swimming for more than a decade, it is clear to us that there remains a deeply embedded culture within your organization which condones the criminal sexual behavior of coaches towards its underage athletes. This culture is similar to that of the Catholic Church, where a long-standing unofficial code enabled rampant sexual abuse by punishing those who report and rewarding those who remain silent. This must end, and it must end now. On June 10, 2020, we held a press conference to announce the filing of several new lawsuits against USA Swimming2. At that time, we asked that you, Mr. Hinchey, take immediate action against those who enabled the pervasive sex abuse within your sport. While some action was taken by you since that time with regard to a few individuals3, only one is known to have any involvement in this scandal. Further, there was nothing said or done by you to indicate these actions were taken in response to our demand to clean up the sport.

    96 DIVISION I Swimming and Diving DIVISION I 2002 Championships Highlights Texas Hooks Up Swimming Title: The Texas Longhorns pulled out their third consecutive championship in dramatic fashion, coming back to take the lead in the second-to-last event of the meet and holding on for the victory. The Longhorns finished with 512 points, 11 more than the Stanford Cardinal. That margin of victory is the closest since the advent of the 16-place scoring system in 1985. Divers made the difference for the Longhorns. Troy Dumais was named diver of the meet for the third straight time after sweeping the spring- board events and taking fifth on platform. With his win in the three- meter event, he became the first diver in NCAA history to win an event all four years. Photo by Erik S.
