ILSE Drowning Prevention Commission

The ILSE General Assembly decided to change the Education Commission to Drowning Prevention Commissions.

The motivation to renew the Commission was to strengthen drowning prevention aspects within ILSE as well as the coordination of drowning prevention activities across the commissions; this will encourages us for our work in the commission.

We are aiming to establish a common understanding of drowning and want to improve data about drowning. Moreover, it is our dedication to enhance the impact measurement of drowning prevention and spread good-practice of prevention-methods to reduce drowning.

You can contact the Drowning Prevention Commission via the ILSE Secretariat secretariat@ilseurope.org and/or prevention@ilseurope.org
