Truth-telling about suicide: Empowering Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to engage with the media
The results from a thematic analysis identified a justified mistrust towards the media, a desire to speak up to the media, and the need for a range of resources to support truth-telling to the media. These results informed the co-creation of a guide to support truth-telling to the media, with the aim of building the capability of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to share their truth in a way which is safe for them.
