Conversely, rivers are the leading location of drownings, and we don\u2019t have the benefit of years of education, life-saving clubs, and lifeguarded locations where it is safe to swim. Our work on media communication has shown that it\u2019s partly because people just don\u2019t hear about drowning at these locations. When it doesn\u2019t happen in the cities or along the coast, it\u2019s not reported as often in the media. Rivers are the area of highest risk, but are not perceived as such, because they don\u2019t benefit from the funding, the awareness, and the preventative strategies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Researcher and Lecturer &#8211; University of New South Wales<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":401,"template":"","practitioner_location":[31,30],"practitioner_sector":[43,27],"practitioner_theme":[20],"acf":{"title_override":"","header_image":"","header_text_colour":"White"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/riskknowhow.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/si_practitioner\/398"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/riskknowhow.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/si_practitioner"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/riskknowhow.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/si_practitioner"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/riskknowhow.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/riskknowhow.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/si_practitioner\/398\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1458,"href":"https:\/\/riskknowhow.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/si_practitioner\/398\/revisions\/1458"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/riskknowhow.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/401"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/riskknowhow.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=398"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"practitioner_location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/riskknowhow.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/practitioner_location?post=398"},{"taxonomy":"practitioner_sector","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/riskknowhow.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/practitioner_sector?post=398"},{"taxonomy":"practitioner_theme","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/riskknowhow.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/practitioner_theme?post=398"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
