The International Association for Suicide Prevention (IASP) is a non-government organisation (NGO) dedicated to the prevention of suicide and suicidal behaviour. IASP provides a global forum for academics, mental health professionals, crisis workers, volunteers and those with lived and living experience of suicide. IASP is organisedthrough a Central Office (CO) currently comprising of eleven part-time workers located in their home country, all working remotely.

To support our team, we are seeking to expand our team with a Lived Experience Campaigns Officer and we invite you to apply.

Background:

Established in 1960, the International Association for Suicide Prevention (IASP) leads the global effort in suicide prevention having developed an effective forum that is proactive in creating strong collaborative partnerships and promoting evidence-based action in order to reduce the incidence of suicide and suicidal behaviour (www.iasp.info). As a membership organisation with a global network of National Representatives in 80 countries and also 17 topic related “Special Interest Groups” addressing key aspects of suicide and suicide prevention, IASP’s engaged and active network encompasses the best research and practice in suicide prevention.

IASP seeks a part-time (60%) Lived Experience Campaigns Officer to ensure that a lived experience perspective is embedded across all elements of the organisation’s internal and external work, while supporting IASP’s marketing and campaigns activity.

Lived experience of suicide is defined as having experienced suicidal thoughts, made a suicide attempt, cared for a loved one through a suicidal crisis, or been bereaved through suicide. People with lived experience of suicide bring unique insights, wisdom and perspectives that are critical to informing and shaping best-practice approaches to suicide prevention. The meaningful inclusion of these voices has been formally recognised by the World Health Organizationand IASP as critical to system reform. Integrating lived experience into the fabric of an organisation allows it to understand more deeply where its work intersects with the people and communities it serves, to ensure its activities are sensitive to their potential impact, and to identify where improvements can be made. For IASP, embedding lived experience across our governance, programmes, communications, policy, advocacy and campaigns, and partnering with people with lived experience so they can take a leading role, is central to reducing suicide and suicidal behaviour.

Purpose:

To embed the perspective of people with lived and living experience across all aspects of IASP’s work, and to supportthe organisation’s communications and campaigns activity so that advocacy is grounded in, and shaped by, those most affected by suicide.
