CIRCA Research has been engaged by the National Suicide Prevention Taskforce to undertake research that will help to build a better understanding about the lived experience of suicide in Australia to inform recommendations to the government. The focus of this research piece is on people who have attempted suicide or experienced a suicidal crisis and who are from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds. Suicide Prevention Australia shares this research as important in providing the Taskforce with a broader diversity of experiences around suicide and suicidal crisis. A focus on the lived experience of people from CALD backgrounds also allows the consideration of immigration and its consequences as a factor in suicidal behaviour and crisis.
