There is much to reflect upon and look forward to as we embark on 2024. As we enter this new year, our shared commitment to preventing suicide and suicidal behaviour remains unwavering.
For 2024-2026, we invite you to participate in this global consultation process towards identifying our next triennial World Suicide Prevention Day theme.
National suicide prevention strategies aim to establish a coordinated and sustained multi-sectoral approach to the prevention of suicide, yet only around 40 countries currently have a formalised national strategy to reduce suicides.
Partnerships for Life is a flagship initiative established by the International Association for Suicide Prevention that aims to expedite efforts globally to reduce the incidence of suicide and suicidal behaviour.
The ‘Reach In, Reach Out’ podcast series aims to encourage understanding around the complexities of suicide, reduce stigma surrounding the topic and spark meaningful conversations.
IASP’s COVID-19 Resource Centre aims to provide information for those seeking resources related to the pandemic and suicidal behaviour, suicidal ideation and self-harm.
Do you live in a country where suicide is a crime? Whether you're in healthcare, politics, crisis support, the law, or just believe in compassion, join us. Let's change the law and save lives together.
