The United Nations adopted a two-pronged strategy in recent years, which is a major step towards lowering drowning tragedies globally. The UN General Assembly first acknowledged the terrible consequences of drowning in April 2021, especially in low- and middle-income nations. To stop these tragedies, they demanded a concerted effort from all sectors. In order to increase awareness and encourage action to improve water safety, this historic resolution established World Drowning Prevention Day on July 25. #worlddrowningpreventionday #drowningprevention #watersafety #respectthewater #watersafetytips #swimming #learntoswim #staysafe #drowningawareness #watersafetyawareness #poolsafety #lifesaving #drowningalliance #zerodrownings #goingblue #safety #bewateraware #floattolive #wavedrowningdetectionsystems #drowningispreventable #worldhealthorganization #beautifulbutdeadly #wavedrowningdetection #supsafe #aquaticsafety #stopdrowning #drowningfacts

Water safety is a multifaceted initiative, and aquatic departments need multiple partners to reach everyone in the community. Aquatic leaders may be the catalyst for change, but it truly takes a village to maximize impact. Read more about this approach in "Swimming Is Just The Start", in this month's #aquatic issue: https://lnkd.in/g8DaTFad

The Association of Aquatic Professionals is committed to helping prevent drownings nationwide. As we celebrate National Water Safety in May, now is a great time to review the AOAP's RESPECT campaign. RECOGNITION – recognize the signs of non-swimmers, tired swimmers, distressed swimmers and potentially unsafe situations EDUCATION – learn what factors can lead to drowning SUPERVISION – direct, constant supervision is key PHYSICAL BARRIERS – provide fencing, safety covers, alarms and life jackets EXPECTATIONS – understand what to expect from the aquatic environment and the body’s response, know your limits. COMMUNICATION – warn and inform, communicate the dangers that are present in, on and around the water TRAINING – learn to swim and how to respond to an emergency #Swimming #AOAP #WaterWatcherbyAOAP #SwimSafe #WaterSafety #DrowningPrevention #PoolSafety #SwimSmart

The Salmon Spirit. It’s the Salmon spawning season now. I am glad to get a chance to witness this natural spectacle. Statistically, only 30 percent of Atlantic salmon survive to spawn again. Most of them die after spawning and the survival rate is about 5 to 10% which get to return to the ocean where they can recover and spawn again the next season. Even though the chances are not high, the salmon still try their best to do it year after year. Surely there is something we can learn from these salmon. How often do we give up even before trying when we know the chances of winning is low? Just like the salmon swimming upstream and defying the odds, we too can find purpose in the journey, not just the destination. Each hurdle will strengthen us and we grow to be courageous as we strive toward our goals. https://lnkd.in/g7kxgDw9 #salmonspawning #resilience #tenacity Click on the notification bell on my profile for latest post. #AngelaOhyourssincerely

A rip tide, or riptide, is a strong offshore current that is caused by the tide pulling water through an inlet along a barrier beach, at a lagoon or inland marina where tide water flows steadily out to sea during ebb tide. It is a strong tidal flow of water within estuaries and other enclosed tidal areas. The riptides become the strongest where the flow is constricted. When there is a falling or ebbing tide, the outflow water is strongly flowing through an inlet toward the sea, especially once stabilised by jetties. #swim #swimlessons #drowningprevention #notonemoredrowning #florida #watersafety #ocean #openwater #swimming
