Pemberdayaan Guru-Guru Flores Timur untuk Pendeteksian dan Pencegahan Bunuh Diri Remaja

Abstract

Suicide is a deliberate act of ending one's life. It is becoming a growing concern as it is occurring more and more frequently with the perpetrators being at least teenagers. Globally there are around 800,000 suicides every year. This means that every 40 seconds there is one suicide. In Indonesia, about 10,000 people commit suicide every year or there is one suicide every 40 minutes. In order for the number of suicides to be reduced, proactive efforts are needed, especially educational institutions to study and explore this theme, know the data, detect and participate in preventing suicide. This is the purpose of the Community Service activity. In collaboration with PGRI of East Flores Regency, a seminar was held on Tuesday, June 25, 2025 to build awareness about the phenomenon of suicide as a first step to be able to prevent suicides.
