Saving Lives from Drowning

Street scene in Bangladesh

Since 2013, we've worked with Bloomberg Philanthropies to explore potential interventions in Bangladesh to reduce child drowning across six different sites.

To date, the project has established more than 3,000 different anchals, covering 70,000 enrolled children. Furthermore, approximately 8,000 women have been trained and employed under the project from its inception.
