It’s the last day of the conference and what an incredible privilege to be a part of a community leading suicide prevention efforts from all over the world.

Existing connections are deepening and you can see the different networks beginning to form. For me, it’s rather nice stepping out of the lift and seeing familiar faces with whom I can engage and chat with.
My excitement for the day ahead, which was already high, soared as I crossed the bustling lobby and stepped into the packed ballroom for the plenary session. Owing to the Early Career Researcher pre-conference workshop, I could spot some familiar faces to sit next to. All three speakers ensured a stimulating start to the day.
“Have you eaten today?” This simple yet powerful phrase, delivered during Dr Onie’s keynote speech, summarised the first day of the 11th Asia Pacific Conference.
Partnerships for Life is a flagship initiative established by the International Association for Suicide Prevention that aims to expedite efforts globally to reduce the incidence of suicide and suicidal behaviour.
The ‘Reach In, Reach Out’ podcast series aims to encourage understanding around the complexities of suicide, reduce stigma surrounding the topic and spark meaningful conversations.
IASP’s COVID-19 Resource Centre aims to provide information for those seeking resources related to the pandemic and suicidal behaviour, suicidal ideation and self-harm.
Had a wonderful time at @IASPinfo APAC!🤓It was so nice to connect with old and new friends and colleagues, explore Thailand, and present some of our Suicide Prevention education research and @LivingWorksAus evaluation! @interface4you @MarcJBryant @Kylie_E_King @MonashUni
I wanted to see the local activities with my own eyes, so I visited Torakarn-san at the office of the Samaritans in Thailand, which offers a suicide prevention hotline. I had a very meaningful conversation and am deeply grateful. Now, I am heading to the airport to return home.
