Abstract

Drowning is a significant cause of preventable mortality and morbidity and has been described as a serious, preventable and neglected public health challenge. Amid building momentum for drowning prevention, most notably with recent United Nations and World Health Assembly Declarations, researchers, policymakers and practitioners convened at the World Conference on Drowning Prevention (WCDP) 2023 under the conference theme of 'shaping a global strategy - mobilizing for local action'. In this special feature, we reflect on the outcomes of the WCDP 2023. Throughout the work presented by more than 750 research, policy and technical experts from over 50 countries, five overarching themes emerged: (1) advancing further contextualisation and interventions, especially in Africa; (2) integrating drowning prevention into climate and disaster agendas; (3) addressing the threats and opportunities in migration; (4) positioning drowning prevention as an issue of social justice; and (5) expanding focus on implementation research. WCDP 2023 delegates co-designed a conference call to action comprising of 16 statements designed to further strengthen global efforts on drowning prevention between now and the WCDP 2025. These actions aim to encourage increased collaboration, create new knowledge, address inequities, amplify voices of those most affected and continue shared commitments to eliminate drowning.

制定全球战略,动员地方行动:2023 年世界预防溺水大会的思考。
溺水是可预防的死亡和发病的一个重要原因,被描述为一个严重的、可预防的和被忽视的公共卫生挑战。随着预防溺水的势头不断增强,特别是最近联合国和世界卫生大会发表了宣言,研究人员、决策者和从业人员在 2023 年世界预防溺水大会(WCDP)上聚集一堂,会议主题为 "制定全球战略--动员地方行动"。在这篇特稿中,我们将回顾 2023 年世界预防溺水大会的成果。在来自 50 多个国家的 750 多名研究、政策和技术专家所做的工作中,出现了五个首要主题:(1) 进一步推进背景化和干预措施,尤其是在非洲;(2) 将预防溺水纳入气候和灾害议程;(3) 应对移民中的威胁和机遇;(4) 将预防溺水定位为社会正义问题;以及 (5) 扩大对实施研究的关注。2023 年世界预防溺水大会的代表们共同设计了一份大会行动呼吁书,其中包括 16 项声明,旨在进一步加强从现在到 2025 年世界预防溺水大会期间的全球预防溺水工作。这些行动旨在鼓励加强合作,创造新知识,解决不平等问题,扩大受影响最严重者的声音,并继续共同致力于消除溺水。
