What does AIDA mean in DIVING

The primary goal of AIDA is to promote and develop the sport of free-diving in a safe and responsible manner. AIDA also works to build awareness about the environment and its impact on the sport of free-diving, as well as to protect areas around the world where free-diving can take place safely.

AIDA promotes safety through education and regulation. It works to ensure free-divers are aware of the risks associated with their activity and the necessary precautions they must take when participating in this type of sport. This includes providing educational materials and implementing regulations that protect both individuals and the environment from potential harm caused by improper activities within the context of free-diving.

AIDA provides support for its members in several ways. First, it offers a range of educational resources that helps new divers learn more about techniques, safety protocols, gear selection and other important information related to free-diving. Additionally, it provides access to competitions, records and specialized forums through which seasoned divers have opportunities to exchange ideas and experiences regarding various aspects related free-diving.
