The United Nations General Assembly passed its first-ever Resolution on Global Drowning Prevention (A/75/L.76) during the 75th session on April 28, 2021.
The resolution was proposed by Bangladesh and Ireland, and co-sponsored by more than 79 nations, including Australia.
In introducing the Resolution at the UN General Assembly in New York, the Ambassador and permanent representative of Bangladesh to the UN, Rabab Fatima, said: “Drowning is a major cause of global mortality, accounting for a greater loss of life annually, than to maternal mortality or malnutrition.

Under the resolution, which was put forth by Bangladesh and Ireland and co-sponsored by 79 member states, signees agree to raise public awareness and develop a national drowning reduction strategy with measurable targets, among other efforts.
