Spreading hope – #chatsafe for content creators

September 8 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Free

Join the suicide prevention experts from #chatsafe to learn how to make social media content that supports suicide prevention.

#chatsafe is a world-first body of research and resources from the Suicide Prevention Research Unit at Orygen. Their advice helps young people and content creators keep themselves and others safe on social media when they talk online about self-harm and suicide.

As part of World Suicide Prevention Month, join this free, 1-hour webinar for content creators and influencers. Here’s what we’ll be covering:

  • The power of safe storytelling: how content can encourage hope, healing, and help-seeking – and can even be a tool for suicide prevention.
  • The risks of unsafe storytelling, and what to watch out for.
  • Practical guidance: deciding if you should create content on this topic (including options that don’t require sharing your own experience), how to create safe content, building a response plan, sharing helpline numbers, and looking after your own wellbeing.
  • Real examples of safe storytelling.
  • A live Q&A with our team.
