Swim Safe Europe Annual Conference 2025: Call for Papers deadline extended to November 7
The deadline for Papers to be submitted to the Swim Safe Europe (SSE) Annual Conference 2025 – which will take place in the Azerbaijan capital of Baku on November 28 and 29 – has been extended to November 7.
This innovative Conference invites federations, academics, practitioners, and researchers to share knowledge, best practices, and innovations in aquatic education and drowning prevention.
The current Call for Papers invites submissions of abstracts (500–750 words) presenting either research or applied practice projects in these areas.
All abstracts will be peer-reviewed by our Scientific Committee.
The deadline for abstract submissions has been shifted to allow additional time for contributions.
The Conference forms part of a wider partnership already established between European Aquatics and local Azerbaijani institutions through a recently signed Memorandum of Understanding that will support educational and social aquatic projects in the country.
The event will be hosted at the Badamdar Hotel and Residence and will run in a hybrid format to enable both onsite and online participation; professional streaming via the European Aquatics Education Digital Platform will be provided if minimum online numbers are reached.
The programme seeks to focus on learn-to-swim policies, drowning prevention, retention of young people in aquatics and the practical integration of innovation into teaching and practice.
Sessions across the two days will include capacity building and storytelling on Day 1 and scientific dialogue, federation collaboration and partnership work on Day 2, with special features such as an Ambassadors’ Panel and the AquaSafe Kids Project roundtable designed to translate research into practice.
All the details, including submission guidelines and suggested topics, are available on the conference site at: https://europeanaquatics.org/development/aquatics-social-responsibility/swim-safe-europe-conference/
They are also available on the Information Bulletin at: https://europeanaquatics.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Info_Bulletin-SSE_Annual_Conference_2025-1.pdf
