## Summary

**Drowning prevention** is the core purpose of this nonbinding resolution, which would support World Drowning Prevention Day to spur concrete global attention and action. It would note that drowning is a leading, preventable cause of death — including being the third-leading cause of unintentional injury deaths and a top cause for ages 1–24 — and would encourage international cooperation to adopt WHO-recommended, low-cost measures such as swim and water-safety training for school-age children, safe places for preschoolers away from water, barriers to water access, bystander rescue and resuscitation training, boating and ferry safety rules, and improved flood risk management.
