Arctic Bereavement Support Group (ABSG)

Suicide is a serious public health problem in the Arctic, and several indigenous communities have alarmingly high suicide rates. Despite the fact that families, relatives and local communities are badly affected by suicide, there has been little focus on follow-up of survivors.

The intention of the project is to integrate this experiential knowledge in arctic regions, adapted to the target group's own experiences as suicide survivors in their own culture and way of life.
