FLO Talanoa is a suicide prevention education programme for Pasifika communities that is evidence informed, culturally safe and designed to be led by the community for the community.
It’s a call to action and aligned with the values of love, respect and reciprocity.
After a FLO Talanoa workshop, participants will:
• be better informed of the risk factors, protective factors and warning signs for suicide.
• have gained an understanding of how Pasifika cultural beliefs and practices influence our well-being.
• know what to do and say if concerned about someone’s safety.
• know how to access help if required.
• have gained the confidence to talk about suicide in a safe way.
Please note: The workshop is recommended for people over the age of 16. In addition, it is not a treatment or support group and some content may cause distress for vulnerable people
