We invite you to our 2024 workshop in Amsterdam designed to help you support your students and community with whole-school approaches to addressing and preventing self-harm and suicide.

You will learn:

• about the prevalence and risks associated with self-harm and suicidal ideation
• strategies for early identification, prevention and management of suicide and self-harm in your school's context
• how to share and disseminate what you learn in this workshopprotective factors and preventative strategies
• what is meant by a whole-school approach to mental health and well-being
• skills that empower you to participate fully as a member of your school's well-being and response teams
• how to develop a supportive mental health culture in your school and lead your community in this area

The content is culturally sensitive and will support our diverse international school community. You'll learn practical strategies from experts and evidence-based materials you can immediately implement on your return to school following this deep dive workshop.
