BIG Cares's video: Black Dog Institute: iBobbly with Dane Gagai

iBobbly is the world’s first suicide prevention app designed for young Indigenous Australians that delivers treatment-based therapy in a culturally relevant way. Suicide rates in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities are among the highest in the world. However, existing interventions and treatments have only demonstrated limited success in addressing this concerning issue. Compared to their non-Indigenous counterparts, Indigenous youth aged 15-24 have four times the risk of suicide, and those aged 25-34 have almost three times the risk. However, very few indigenous people intend to seek help before acting on suicidal thoughts. Despite many policies, programs and funding initiatives, rates of suicide are rising across the Indigenous community. Novel programs and strategies, including e-mental health solutions, are required to address the urgent needs of Indigenous communities. iBobbly is a trial of the world’s first suicide prevention app designed especially for use by Indigenous Australians.
