Abstract

[Extract] This report presents the results of a systematic search of the peer reviewed and grey literature, aimed at identifying studies that describe or evaluate suicide prevention interventions, including early intervention, prevention and postvention strategies, targeting Indigenous peoples in Australia, New Zealand (NZ), Canada or the United States (US), for the period 1981 to 2012 (May) (inclusive). It critiques the methodology of evaluations of suicide prevention interventions and describes their key characteristics. The likely causes of suicide among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians most commonly articulated in the descriptive literature are also identified. The implications of overall findings for suicide prevention programs and policies targeting Aboriginal communities in NSW are discussed.
