IASP Task Forces - National Systems for Certifying Suicidal Deaths
Short-term and Long-term Goals
- To establish how we can best explain how suicides are tabulated in national database/vital registry systems.
- To provide the basis for case-control, cross-national studies to identify reasonably equivalent national systems with, for example, high versus low suicide rates or to reasonably conclude that such an exercise is futile.
Invitation
IASP members are invited to draft descriptions of their national systems. The Irish system of death registration and cause of death classification is made available on this website (see: Inquest Study Technical Report System Description) as a guide and template for such descriptions, which can be sent to the chair of the Task Force.
