The Australasian Diving Safety Foundation

The Australasian Diving Safety Foundation (ADSF) is an Australian-based Health Promotion Charity. The main object of the Foundation is to “promote the prevention and control of diving-related diseases and illnesses in human beings, including but not limited to decompression illness.”

The ADSF supports its objects predominantly by undertaking research, providing education on diving safety, and offering grants for relevant research, diving safety promotions, dive medical training, oxygen equipment and AEDs.

Funds have been allocated to support up to AUD$200,000 per year for appropriate research projects. In addition, the ADSF offers grants of up to AUD$25,000 to fund safety- related projects within the diving industry.
