The @IASPinfo @Lancet launch webinar for this Series is currently underway - we have heard from Jane Pirkis and are now hearing from Keith Hawton - both co-led this Series on public health approaches to #suicideprevention. Next up is @RakhiDandona
Replying to @TheLancet
A policy re-set is needed.
🗨️ “This Series demonstrates that addressing these more upstream factors is likely to lead to sizeable reductions in suicide rates. We are calling on governments from around the world to take a ‘suicide prevention in all policies’ approach”, says co-author, Prof Jane Pirkis. hubs.li/Q02Ph92_0

For too long, suicide has been shrouded in silence, stigma and misunderstanding. By starting the conversation, we can change the narrative on suicide. Listen to IASP President Professor Rory O'Connor's #WorldSuicidePreventionDay message.

Abi should be saying to the senior management team that it’s down to them to lead the way and drive change.
If they can’t do that then why are they there?

Replying to @WalesRugby
The new CEO wants to “search the horizon for our North Star” but can’t find three Wise Men in the WRU to write a rugby strategy so employs an expensive consultancy from the Middle East.
This was a fascinating first webinar in a new bi-monthly series. Thanks to all presenters and all who attended.

Our new EMA article on suicide capability raises two questions: Is this what a suicide readiness state looks like? Does capability contain a cognitive contributor? @thomasjoiner @KlonskyLab @craigjbryan @ALamontMills @IASPinfo @afspnational @SuicidePrevAU doi.org/10.1111/sltb.13025
