The International Network for Transcultural Suicidology invites participants to its fourth hybrid workshop, focusing on current developments in suicide prevention, suicide prevention interventions, and research methods in transcultural contexts.

The Network for Transcultural Suicidology was established in 2023 and is open to researchers, clinicians, non-governmental organisations, and others working with transcultural issues and suicide prevention. The network is interdisciplinary and welcomes professionals from a wide range of fields.

This year's workshop features presentations on the anthropology of suicide based on Cambodian case studies, as well as on participatory, arts-based, and visual methods in suicide research and prevention. The program will also cover experiences of psychiatric emergency assessments of suicidal crises among migrants in Italy, a new report on the health of young Sámi people in Sweden, and a study of a video-counselling program aimed at preventing depression and suicide among people living with HIV in Tanzania.
