| dc.description.notes | Indigenous suicide is a significant population health challenge for Australia. Suicide has emerged in the past half century as a major cause of Indigenous premature mortality and is a contributor to the overall Indigenous health and life expectancy gap.<br/ ><br/ >Indigenous children and young people are particularly vulnerable, comprising 30% of the suicide deaths among those under 18 years of age. In addition, Indigenous 15–24 year olds are over five times as likely to suicide as their non-Indigenous peers. 'Suicide clusters', or a series of suicide completions and/or self-harming acts that occur within a single community or<br/ >locale over a period of weeks or months, is also a significant concern, particularly among younger people.<br/ ><br/ >As males represent the significant majority of completed Indigenous suicides, gender can also be understood as a risk factor.However, the number of suicides and increasing self-harm among Indigenous females is an ongoing concern.<br/ ><br/ >The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Suicide Prevention Evaluation Project (ATSISPEP) arose from Indigenous community members, leaders in mental health and suicide prevention and the Australian Government who shared an intention that the implementation of the NATSISPS, and the funds pledged towards it, should be impactful and should reduce suicide in<br/ >Indigenous communities. The parties also shared concern that more formal approaches should be adopted to identify a sufficiently robust evidence-base on which NATSISPS implementation could proceed.<br/ >Excerpt from Executive Summary | en |
