Suicides are preventable. There is a need for comprehensive multi-sectoral approach where the government, media and civil society all play important role as stakeholders. Some measures suggested by WHO include:

• limiting access to the means of suicide;

• reporting of suicide by media in a responsible way;

• bringing in alcohol-related policies;

• early identification, treatment and care of people at risk;

• training health workers in assessing and managing for suicide;

• care for people who attempted suicide and providing community support.
