h Triple i | Virtual Conference | 25th–27th May 2021 Welcome Address
Dear intuitive, imaginative and innovative guest,
We are pleased to welcome you to the Triple i Virtual Conference, an event
hosted by UP IAM Slovene Centre for Suicide Research, De Leo Fund Onlus
and International Association for Suicide Prevention.
The conference is an international annual event organized by the Slove-
ne Centre for Suicide Research (Andrej Marušič Institute, University of Pri-
morska) in collaboration with FAMNIT (University of Primorska). By holding
a conference, we aim to raise awareness and knowledge about suicide and
thus contribute to the development of suicide prevention and postvention
activities.
In recent years, the conference has developed into a platform for fruitful
discussions among distinguished experts in suicide research and preventi-
on, interacting with young and perspective suicidologists and other mental
health professionals.
Due to the current epidemiological situation, staff from various organizati-
ons have joined together to prepare a virtual version of the traditional Triple
i conference, as we want to enable eager participants to listen to and interact
with world-renowned suicidologists. Sharing knowledge and experiences re-
lated to the field of suicidal behaviour is all the more relevant in these new
and challenging circumstances. And participating in the virtual conference
enables just that – the opportunity to listen to new and innovative findings
in the field of suicidology while connecting and exchanging knowledge with
participants from countries around the world.
The Triple i 2021 programme covers topics such as suicide during the epi-
demic, suicide prevention in adolescents, exposure to trauma and suicide,
the relationship between media and suicidal behaviour, etc.; thus, addres-
sing theory, research, prevention, and interventions in suicidology. Each lec-
ture will be followed by a discussion in which participants are invited to share
their views. Existing difficulties in both research and clinical work will be spe-
cifically addressed.
Let the Triple i Conference be an opportunity for you to express and prac-
tice your intuition, imagination and innovative ideas.
