-meetings where professionals and suicidal people do not have the same cultural background.
This lecture provides an insight into how we as professionals can be sensitive, understand and talk to suicidal people from different cultural backgrounds.
Issues that will be addressed during the event:
- What are the cultural differences in the way we think about suicide and do they affect the way we talk about it?
- Dare I ask the question?
- What do I do with what the person tells me?
- Who can I get support from in my professional role?
During this lecture, you will gain knowledge, reflection and concrete tools for meeting people in vulnerable life situations. The aim is to strengthen the confidence to both dare to ask and to take care of the answer.
Lecturers: Maria Sundvall, psychiatrist and doctor of medicine. Maria has researched suicide among asylum seekers and written about mental illness among refugees.
