Watersafe Auckland (Inc): Safe Summer evaluation 2004

This evaluation aimed to: 1. Assess WaterSafe Auckland's (WAI’s) strategic alliances across the injury prevention, education, health and safety sectors. The purpose of this engagement with these key alliances/partnerships was to evaluate how their collaboration with WAI enhanced the worth of their work and how they considered WAI had met the needs of their communities. It covered the inclusiveness and processes of WAI over the past 24 months. 2. Evaluate the 2003/2004 Safe Summer campaign and also compare and assess the results of past Safe Summer Campaigns in place since 2000. Although each Safe Summer campaign had different target groupings, there was still the opportunity to compare the general building of the desired “water safety culture”. The evaluation was conducted between March and June, 2004 and this brief timeframe should be acknowledged when considering the extent of evaluation activities. The scope of the evaluation activities incorporated key informant interviews; and a quantitative analysis of the Water Safety public awareness survey 2004.
