Job Context:
∎ Background/ purpose of the role:
∎ Drowning is a leading cause of death worldwide. It`s a serious, neglected public health threat, claiming the lives of 320,000 people every year.
∎ More than 90% of drowning occurs in low- and middle-income countries, where people have higher exposure to the risks associated with open water as they go about their daily lives: collecting water, bathing, fishing and playing.
∎ In Bangladesh, drowning is the leading cause of death for children aged 1-17, with 18,000 young lives lost needlessly every year. Disasters and water-related risks affect all areas of Bangladesh, with the Barishal Division bearing the highest burden. Despite the death toll, action to reduce and prevent drowning in Barisal has been absent.
∎ In Bangladesh, drowning deaths mostly occur in rural areas, away from hospitals and out of the sight of policy makers. Evidence shows that a range of interventions are effective at preventing drowning, including the strategic use of barriers to control access to water, provision of safe places such as day care centres for pre-school children, and teaching school-age children basic swimming skills.
∎ Project Bhasa (which means `float` in Bengali) is a groundbreaking initiative to reduce drowning in the Barisal Division of Bangladesh. The project is developing a multi-sector and evidence-led strategy to target the most vulnerable people
∎ The outcome that this project is seeking to achieve is for other organizations to be in a position whereby they can deliver effective drowning prevention interventions for boys and girls under 12 in the Barishal division.
