9: Swimming for All – Swimming for Life | FINA World Aquatics Convention 2018
FINA has launched the Swimming for All – Swimming for Life Programme to offer the possibility to individuals from all ages, backgrounds and capacities, to take swimming lessons. The main objective is to spread mass teaching of swimming and life-saving techniques through the implementation of the Programme, with standard criteria across the world in those countries where the need is most urgent, contributing to the integration, education and inclusion of citizens in the places where it is applied. The aim is not only to promote physical activity worldwide, but also, to contribute to the prevention of drowning and thus save lives. Speakers • Dr. Julio C.
