Brief Summary: It is Cluster Randomized Control Trial research to examine feasibility and relevance of the modified tool Nae Disha for Life which will incorporate suicide prevention and resilience to reduce suicide ideation among young people in Bundelkhand region of Madhya Pradesh India This intervention will build on existing relationships with at least four Government Middle Schools in Nowgong block of Chhatarpur district Madhya Pradesh This preliminary research will develop relationships and evidence for implementation scale-up research
Detailed Description: Madhya Pradesh state in India was ranked as third highest number of suicides reported in 2020 in India The majority of suicide victims 234 35771 were educated up to Matriculation Secondary level A large proportion of suicide deaths occur between the ages 15 and 29 Mental health problems begin during youth 12-24 years of age however is often detected later in life

Nae Disha for Life is a brief multi-component psychosocial promotion and resilience tool developed by Emmanuel Hospital Association New Delhi The purpose of this research work is to evaluate the feasibility acceptance and effectiveness of Nae Disha for Life tool in reducing suicide ideation among youth in Bundelkhand region This will be implemented among the targeted schools of Nowgong block Chhatarpur district

There are number of studies on treatment gaps for the mental health problems suicide statistical analysis methods of suicides and causes of suicides But there is hardly any study on prevention of suicides or suicidal ideation among the youth in India

However Nae Disha is a youth resilience group-based intervention building on the Ottawa health promotion charter that aims to increase and strengthen key psycho-social assets in adolescents to moderate the impacts of adversity It has been successfully implemented amongst out-of-school adolescents in Northern India and studies have demonstrated effectiveness in improving perceptions of social inclusion attitudes to gender equality resilience and mental health among young people affected by mental illness The Nae Disha would also deliver benefits to other young people similarly affected in other parts of India and possibly beyond

Building on these studies I propose to examine feasibility and relevance of the modified tool Nae Disha for Life which will incorporate suicide prevention and resilience to reduce suicide ideation among young people in Bundelkhand region of Madhya Pradesh This intervention will build on existing relationships with at least four Government Middle Schools in Nowgong block of Chhatarpur district Madhya Pradesh This preliminary research will develop relationships and evidence for implementational scale-up research
