The National Action Alliance for Resuscitation (NAWIB) is an alliance whose main purpose is to educate and train citizens in Germany in the field of resuscitation .

The alliance was founded on September 19, 2016, at the beginning of the week of resuscitation, by the then Federal Minister of Health Hermann Gröhe together with the head of the Federal Center for Health Education, Heidrun Thaiss.

The Olympic champion Maria Höfl-Riesch , Eckart von Hirschhausen , Gerald Asamoah and the then French ambassador Philippe Etienne support the action of the Federal Ministry of Health and the Federal Center for Health Education (BZgA) together with medical societies in the field of intensive care and emergency medicine and all German aid organizations. The office is located in the BZgA.

The aim of the NAWIB measures is to increase the lay resuscitation rate in Germany from currently 37% to 50% in 2020. The message should be: Everyone can save lives. Resuscitation is very easy.
