Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
"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.
The research activities of the study is distributed as follows:
4 months(16weeks), Training of surveyors, Training staff as Facilitators, Meeting with local, stakeholders / communities, Refinement of program content.
Next two weeks:Recruiting of subjects from 4 schools, Screening of subjects in 4 schools, Formation of groups in 4 schools,Baseline data collection from subjects,
