As part of the 2018 Canoe World Championships, the program "Schweiz aktuell" (Switzerland Today) is following the training of the course rescuers who are tasked with rescuing athletes from the river. Not only are volunteers being trained for the World Championships, but recently, local firefighters have also been trained for river rescues. This training is intended to help firefighters rescue people from rivers in the future.
