RVTS Vest has developed a 2-day course on culture-sensitive suicide prevention for professionals who work with suicidal refugees and asylum seekers. The course has been evaluated as good and it has a high utilitarian value. However, there can be language barriers between professionals and suicidal users with an ethnic minority background, which lead to the suicidal person not receiving enough help.
In order to break down the language barriers, there is a need to develop an interactive digital tool as part of the course. The tool must contribute to supporting professionals in mapping conversations with suicidal persons. The main part of the tool consists of an animated person who has a dialogue with the suicidal person in the suicidal person's own language.
The project wants to develop several animated persons with different cultural and religious backgrounds, in which suicidal persons can trust and feel safe with.
