They are often referred to as the gold standard in suicide intervention skills training and you can see a full list of ever increased published papers and studies on their website – with more being added by research teams and implementers in diverse settings around the world each day.

Hi I'm Kim Borrowdale and I'd like to welcome you to the third season of A World Where LivingWorks.
We know LivingWorks today as a global leader in suicide intervention. Thousands of trainers in workplaces and communities around the world teaching gold class suicide first aid programs like the two day ASIST workshop, the half day SafeTALK suicide alert helper workshop and now the 90- minute online interactive introduction to suicide first aid, LivingWorks Start. Programs that have been endorsed in more than 50 peer reviewed journals around the world. That have informed international policy and are implemented everywhere from schools to military bases, hospitals to sports clubs and everything in between.
But do you know how it all started almost 40 years ago? In 1983 to be precise.
Coming together from diverse backgrounds including social work, psychiatry, and counseling, four men—Richard Ramsay, Bryan Tanney, Roger Tierney, and Bill Lang—had a radical idea: what if they could empower everyone to help save lives from suicide? Setting out to address the lack of effective skills among both laypeople and professionals, they developed the precursor to the current LivingWorks ASIST program and a Train-the-Trainer model to disseminate it.
Our third season of A World Where LivingWorks is an extra special one as I talk with LivingWorks co founder, Richard Ramsay. In each episode we’ll discuss the evolution of LivingWorks and suicide intervention practices – where we’ve come from and where we’re going when it comes to saving lives from suicide and supporting people to live well.
We’d love you to join us. Tune in from next week on all the usual podcast players.

Guess what? We’re starting a podclub! You know, like a book club but you get together to chat about the podcast. Podclub!
In this series, we’re talking with people from communities and cultures around the world to try to better understand the concept of suicide and its prevention in their context.
These are big discussions that possibly raise more questions than answers.
That’s why alongside this series we’ve started a podclub.

Suicide is complex and its prevention is fair from simple but together we can try to better understand what it means for different communities. To build a world where LivingWorks.

Welcome to series two of A World Where LivingWorks!
In this series we talk with people from different communities and cultures around the world to try to better understand the concept of suicide and its prevention in their context.
We’re discussing some big stuff that doesn’t have easy answers.
We talking about everything from modern masculinity to galvanising faith groups. We look at the challenges of walking in two worlds as First Nations People...refugee and migrant families who call two countries home...and how to create safe spaces for LGBTIQ communities.
In each episode we’ll discuss the nuances of language when it comes to suicide. How do you prevent suicide when the word itself isn’t used in some countries and cultures? When lives have been lost to suicide, how do different cultures process grief and loss?
We talk with people about taking positive action in their community. How have they engaged decision makers, local people with influence, and everyday people in suicide first aid?
Every community and culture is different. But suicide and its prevention is something we all have in common. Series two coming soon!
