Every day a person drowns in Spain

According to the World Health Organization, every hour in the world more than 40 people die by drowning, which means a total of 372,000 a year. Since 2015, more than 3,100 deaths from drowning in aquatic spaces have occurred in Spain, most of them preventable. These data show the need to join forces in the search for strategies that help prevent and reduce the number of deaths in the aquatic environment.

These issues reflect the challenges to reduce drowning at regional, national and global dimensions. CIPREA will focus on aquatic activities through the lens of the following areas:

  • Prevention
  • Statistics
  • Education, water safety
  • Rescue
  • Health
  • Natural disasters
  • Migrants and refugees
  • Innovations
