SwimSafe

To protect children from drowning, CIPRB has designed the survival swimming teaching program “SwimSafe”, which is a flagship programme of the organization, now has been recommended by WHO. The SwimSafe intervention was found 96% protective. Children are provided swimming teaching by trained Community Swimming Instructors (CSIs) following SwimSafe manual in modified structures. Each batch comprises of 15-25 children with 50% girls. CSIs divide 15 children into three groups having 5 children who are taught for 30 minutes in each session. Generally, CSI-to-child ratio is 1:5 while in the pond and children with disabilities the ratio is 1:1. Children are taught 21 skills required to learn survival swimming for a two-week period. Skills include introduction to water, glide, exhale air under water, kick, thread, float and land-based rescue. To be a graduate, a child needs to demonstrate swimming 25 metres, floating 30 seconds, and performing the land-based rescue.
