The purpose of this paper is to aid government and community sector organisations that are undertaking strategic planning on addressing suicide. A comprehensive list of Socio-economic and Environmental Determinants of Suicide (SEDS) is set out, giving for each a brief description and a summary of evidence of links to suicide. By providing a comprehensive overview of SEDS it shows the range of areas where work can be undertaken to reduce the risk of suicide. This list will provide the basis for a final report in this project which will set out key recommendations for each SEDS as well overarching recommendations.
