  1. Gaps in suicide data hinder prevention efforts in Ghana

    Ghana's suicide reporting system is fragmented and affected by stigma, weak death certification, and the lingering effects of criminalisation, according to the Medical Director of the Accra Psychiatric Hospital. The gaps in data from the country's four main sources—the District Health Information Management System, the Births and Deaths Registry, police data, and research—are hindering accurate determination of the scale and patterns of suicide needed to guide prevention interventions.
