Background
Make CPR and defibrillator training mandatory in schools. CPR saves lives — but too few know how to do it. Making CPR and defibrillator training mandatory in schools will create a generation of lifesavers. Every minute without CPR reduces survival chances by 10%. With proper training, students can act fast in emergencies and help close the gender gap in life-saving response. It’s simple, powerful, and urgently needed.
