    Book description

    According to the WHO in 2024, more than 720,000 people die due to suicide every year. With practical, evidence-based interventions, suicides can be prevented. This book addresses and evaluates those strategies in order to address this global health issue. Written by international experts in the field, this book provides global strategies applicable in both High Income and Low/Middle Income country settings. Chapters cover topics such as decriminalisation, the role of intention, the reasons for the excess of male deaths by suicide in High Income countries, and the relationship between suicide and violence. The book emphasises practicality and accessibility, making it an authoritative guide for practitioners and policy makers around the world. This succinct and evidence-based resource is essential reading for those seeking to develop and implement global suicide prevention strategies.
