ABSTRACT
This protocol invites researchers and practitioners across Europe to establish a research network and disseminate role-playing interventions for suicidality prevention among adolescents. By understanding and targeting specific adolescent profiles, the aim is to improve preventive strategies that are evidence-based and cost-effective, incorporating methodologies similar to the Youth Aware of Mental Health (YAM) program while considering current restrictions due to ownership and copyright. This initiative seeks to facilitate better developmental trajectories for young people by fostering mental health and reducing suicide rates through collaborative efforts with public services, schools, and policymakers.
