SAVIR and Safe Kids Worldwide invite you to be part of a vital effort to prevent drowning and advance the science of water safety. Don’t miss the next Drowning Prevention Interest Group Quarterly Meeting happening virtually.

Please note: the event has been rescheduled to August 20 from 1-2:30 ET. 

This collaborative group launched at the SAVIR 2025 Annual Conference and is focused on shaping and supporting the U.S. National Water Safety Action Plan (USNWSAP) research agenda. The agenda was developed from key evidence gaps identified by national working groups and the 2022 Childhood Drowning Prevention Research Summit hosted by the National Drowning Prevention Association (NDPA). It provides a roadmap for researchers and funders to prioritize applied research that can drive real-world impact in drowning prevention.
