We are excited to be a part of the Indigenous Suicide Prevention Forum 2024 this week on Bunurong/BoonWurrung Country in Albert Park, Melbourne 🧡

We presented two panels yesterday:

• 'The Elders Report' panel which invited Elders who participated in our 2018 Elder's Report into Preventing Indigenous Self-harm and Youth Suicide to share their knowledge and experience, and;

• The 'Caring for Country as an integral aspect of improving mental health outcomes for young people' panel to address the impact of environmental degradation and climate change on young mob. 🌿

This is such an important event and gathering of mob working in suicide prevention to share knowledge and connect, thank you to @aipa.aust for having us! 🙌🏽

📸 Uncle Keith Boney, Professor Pat Dudgeon (Culture is Life Co-Chair), Professor Gracelyn Smallwood (Forum Elder), Aunty Stephanie Armstrong (Culture is Life Senior Consultant) and Manny Williams (Fullaship Program 2022).
