This guideline is written for the adults who plan, manage and deliver drowning-prevention programmes. It evaluates two approaches: day-care provision for children younger than six, and basic swimming and water-safety training for children aged six and above. The discussion sets out the questions considered, the evidence reviewed and the reasoning behind the resulting recommendations.
Implementation sections consider the practical conditions needed to deliver these interventions, including programme quality, acceptability and resource requirements. The book also explains its guideline-development methods and identifies gaps for further research. This complete 2021 professional publication retains the original evidence tables, references, annexes and definitions used throughout the assessment.
