Drowning is a silent epidemic that claims an estimated 360,000 lives
every year, many of them children. This summer, we brought this to the attention of world leaders, with a photographic exhibition at the UN Headquarters in New York. The Just One Inch of Water exhibition ran from 28 June to 29 July and featured photographs from three countries with some of the highest drowning rates in the world: Thailand, Bangladesh and Fiji.
