Nepal: a notable success

Nepal is a country that is heavily dependent on agriculture, where pesticides are widely used and are easily accessible within communities. In 2018–19, Nepal recorded 5,754 suicides – a high number for a relatively small country.

For people with severe mental health issues or for those who have experienced abuse at the hands of people they trusted (whether a loved one, stranger, medical provider, or service) there may be good reasons to want to avoid doing a recorded interview. Less formal conversations during our extended fieldwork have allowed us to explore how distress can be caused by issues like poverty, the cost-of-living crisis, state institutions (like schools, prisons, hospitals), families, discrimination, as well as other cultural factors.
