Yesterday marked World Su***de Prevention Day - a global reminder that every life matters, and every conversation about mental health counts.
π According to the WHO, more than 700,000 people die by su***de every year worldwide, and su***de is the fourth leading cause of death among 15β29-year-olds.
At imhappy, in association with Indian Society for Training & Development (ISTD) (Western Region), we recently celebrated National Teacherβs Day by hosting an Online Panel Discussion on βSu***de Prevention among Students: Early Identification & Supportβ.
The session brought together esteemed voices:
Dr. RAJESHWARI Narendran, Prof. Dr. Indu Rao, Dr Pratibha Yadav and Dr. Dhruv Thakkar. Expertly moderated by Mr. Chetan Bhojani., our Founder, the discussion emphasized:
β¨ Recognizing early signs of distress among students
β¨ Extending timely support with empathy
β¨ Creating safe educational environments that nurture mental wellbeing
On this World Su***de Prevention Day, our biggest takeaway is clear: su***de is preventable when we come together with awareness, compassion, and action.
Letβs pledge to stand by our students, colleagues, friends, and communities - because one small conversation can truly save a life. π
