The Role of Helplines in Suicide Prevention
Helplines are often the first, and sometimes only, point of support for people experiencing suicidal thoughts or emotional distress. Join host Dr Vikas Arya with CEO LifeLine International, Thilini Perera, and Co-Founder of Samacitta and Pukar Helpline, Dolly Sharma, as they explore the unique role helplines play in suicide prevention, from providing immediate, compassionate connection to overcoming barriers such as stigma, fear, and isolation. Discussions of suicide can be overwhelming; if you are struggling and would like to seek further support, we encourage you to visit Find A Helpline, where you can connect to helpline support near you.

Suicidal Behaviour in Women and Girls
In this special episode, Professor Jo Robinson and Dr Lakshmi Vijayakumar bring together a distinguished panel to discuss suicidal behaviour in women and girls in recognition of International Women's Day. Joining the conversation are leading experts Professor Keith Hawton, Professor Prabha Chandra, and Professor Ann John. The discussion explores persistently high suicide rates among women in low and middle-income countries, the concerning rise in self-harm among young women, and the intersecting pressures that shape risk, including domestic violence, financial stress, and major life transitions. IASP’s Suicide in Women and Girls Taskforce works to understand data trends, influencing factors and effective interventions around female suicidal behaviour to encourage the development of evidence-based, evaluated approaches and interventions to prevent suicide in women and younger girls. The taskforce consists of expertise from across the globe, from related research communities, lived experience and minority and vulnerable groups. Find out more. Discussions of suicide can be overwhelming; if you are struggling and would like to seek further support, we encourage you to visit Find A Helpline, where you can connect to helpline support near you.

How AI is Changing Suicide Prevention
Join host Professor Jo Robinson with Professor Matthew Spittal, Dr Ursula Whiteside, and Dr Salim Salmi as they examine the growing role of artificial intelligence in suicide prevention. Together, they explore the potential benefits and risks of AI, what the evidence does and doesn’t tell us about predicting and reducing suicide risk, and how evidence gaps shape trust and real-world use. A thoughtful conversation on innovation, ethics, and what responsible progress in AI and suicide prevention should look like moving forward. We acknowledge that this episode includes discussion of suicide methods, which some listeners may find distressing. While these conversations are intended to support understanding and prevention, we recognise the importance of approaching such topics with care to minimise the risk of harm. IASP promotes guidance on safe communication about suicide, encouraging responsible discussion that increases awareness and understanding of its complexities while prioritising safety and sensitivity.

Discussions of suicide can be overwhelming; if you are struggling and would like to seek further support, we encourage you to visit Find A Helpline, where you can connect to helpline support near you.
