There are more than 1500 fatal drownings in South Africa annually, and the World Health Organization global burden of disease study estimates that 125,500 years of healthy life are lost annually due to both fatal and non-fatal drowning in South Africa. Drowning prevention is therefore a key priority for international and local water safety organisations. Using the Delphi method, this study aimed to determine the consensus research priorities for Lifesaving South Africa in order to guide their research agenda.
