Key Components and Barriers in Web-Based Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper Training: Systematic Narrative Review
Web-based GTPs represent a promising avenue for expanding access to suicide prevention training. Their effectiveness may be strengthened through the integration of frameworks tailored to web-based learning environments, as well as interactive and user-centered design elements that support learning and retention. Future research should examine the acceptability, feasibility, and sustainability of these programs, while also refining their adaptation for diverse populations. In this regard, co-design approaches could facilitate the tailoring of such programs to the needs and specificities of their target populations. Overall, enhancing the design and delivery of web-based GTPs may ultimately improve their contribution to suicide prevention efforts.
