Stakeholders are promising to do more in the area of suicide prevention, especially child suicide, as they have, for the first time, developed a scorecard tool for media reporting on suicide. A stakeholder-consultative meeting also adopted the latest World Health Organization recommendations for media reporting on suicide. According to the WHO, there is a direct correlation between media reports about people who die by suicide and subsequent additional suicidal acts. This, they hope, will go a long way toward positively impacting preventive suicide. According to the World Health Organization, at least 700,000 people die annually due to suicide.
