Optimising Suicide Prevention
Programmes and their Implementation in
Europe (OSPI-Europe)
The role of Positive Mental Health Promotion and Social
Marketing in a Multi-Level Suicide Prevention Programme
Ms. Claire Coffey, Dr. Ella Arensman
& EU Consortium
OSPI-Europe

An innovative suicide prevention
project funded by the European
Commission’s 7th Framework
Programme

Brings together a consortium of
suicide researchers from 11
countries throughout Europe, all
with an established track record of
designing and implementing suicide
prevention strategies
OSPI-Limerick is conducted in collaboration with the Suicide Prevention
Office and the Limerick Mental Health Management Team.
OSPI-Europe
Aims:
 To test the effectiveness of an optimised, evidence-based, multilevel
intervention to reduce suicide and deliberate self harm, which complements
existing national and local guidelines and actions

To provide the EU member states with realistic action-based
recommendations that can be implemented on a regional basis to reduce
suicidality and related mental health problems.
Background

Key aspect of OSPI-Europe is a multi-level intervention based
on previous work by the Nuremburg Alliance Against
Depression (NAD) and the European Alliance Against
Depression (EAAD)

This approach is in line with evidence from other fields of
prevention which have showed that tackling a public health
problem on multiple levels and with multiple strategies is more
effective than using only a single strategy

In Ireland, EAAD was conducted throughout Cork and Kerry
between 2005-2006

Promotion
Examples of Positive Mental
Health Promotion in OSPI

Increasing awareness of depression through Gatekeeper training among
health care professionals (e.g. GPs, psychiatric nurses) and community
facilitators (e.g. social workers, Gardai, youth workers, clergy)

Increased depression awareness will contribute to early identification of
people with depression and self harm / suicide risk

Early identification of people at risk of depression and/or suicidal
behaviour will contribute to early intervention
Examples of Positive Mental
Health Promotion in OSPI ctd.

Reducing stigma associated with depression, suicidal behaviour and help seeking
behaviour through an extensive public awareness campaign

Reduced stigma may positively affect:
 quality of life for people with depression, impacting on employment status,
educational options, and social opportunities
 detection and treatment of depressive disorders
 help-seeking behaviour
 adherence to treatment
Learning from EAAD:
Evidence for the effectiveness of
positive mental health promotion
Attitude change following Gatekeeper training
Suicide can be prevented

It is always possible to help a
person with suicidal thoughts

Evaluation
OSPI-Europe and Social Marketing
1. Problem identification
Challenging inaccurate beliefs about depression and
suicidal behaviour and replacing these stereotypes with
factual information
“Most people
who harm
themselves
are not
depressed”
“Once a person
has had suicidal
thoughts,
he/she will
never let them
go”
Core messages of OSPI-Europe
“Depression can affect everybody”
“Depression has many faces”
“Depression can be treated”
OSPI-Europe and Social Marketing
