Project Summary:

Suicide remains a prevailing issue locally, in Europe and worldwide. Suicide is a global phenomenon that affects people of all ages and from all regions of the world, regardless of gender, yet it particularly effects those with low- and middle-income. Civil society plays a crucial role in dealing with this major health issue in Malta. In this regard, constant investment is needed to sustain this national effort.

This project seeks to raise awareness on suicide with the aim to increase identification and prevention, combat stigma, and encourage those vulnerable to seek assistance. Moreover, this project aims to strengthen and improve the invaluable SPOT service in a professional manner.
