Suicide mortality rate (per 100,000 population)

This indicator measures the annual incidence of suicide deaths in relation to every 100,000 individuals within a given population, providing a snapshot of the public health challenge posed by suicide. By focusing on crude rates, it highlights the overall burden of suicides without accounting for variations in age distribution within the population. Monitoring this metric is crucial for understanding trends over time, identifying at-risk groups, and evaluating the effectiveness of mental health interventions and prevention strategies. High rates can signal a need for urgent community support, comprehensive mental health services, and targeted policy responses to address underlying issues, ultimately fostering a more resilient society.
