Just a reminder: SWIM Cambodia’s delivery partner for delivery of drowning prevention interventions is HTK. I know it’s been a while since we posted, sorry! SWIM Cambodia provide HTK technical advisory support, support for funding and leadership. Back in December 2023, SWIM Cambodia trained 14 new volunteers in the delivery of Water Safety & CPR education to children. Two lead trainers previously with SWIM Cambodia put on a new HTK shirt and became lead trainers with HTK.
Sarath Tek, Executive Director of HTK worked with the local education department and a local school to deliver teacher training to 32 schoolteachers. This ensures the sustainability of Water Safety education with the aim of one day having drowning awareness and Water Safety as subjects in the Cambodian school curriculum.
In the last year, over 570 children and 250 adults were taught drowning awareness and water safety education, and 390 children were taught resuscitation (CPR) skills.
Well done everyone!
