About Against Suicide Bevidsthedsplakat

Mod Selvmord er en samfundsoplysende plakat skabt for at adressere tabuet omkring depression og selvmordstanker. En stor vektorillustration viser en kædereaktion af små udløsere og faserne i en selvmordsproces, sammen med mulige former for støtte. Plakaten er tiltænkt offentlige steder som pladser og transportstoppesteder, hvor betragtere har tid til at studere de mange detaljer. Det stilfærdige design har til formål at hjælpe berørte personer med at føle sig forstået og sænke tilbageholdenheden ved at søge hjælp. Produktion er mulig som en stor plakat, en flyer eller et avistryk.

Production Technology

Design Challenge
The hardest part war the taboo of the suicide topic.
Research
The big poster is full of details, full of little things and interactions, like the little triggers and phases of a suicidal process. Triggers they want to be found and they everybody knows. Those affected feel more understood and the inconspicuous design means that they are less reluctant to seek help.
Inspiration
Thoughts of suicide can affect anyone, at any time in life. In these difficult times, isolation and social pressures are increasing problems. On the other hand, Depressions are still a taboo and a stigma. Those affected often remain silent until the thoughts start to cycle and in the worst case, the can turn into a suicidal chain reaction. Suicide and depressions are a taboo topic.
Project Duration
The project idea startet in Germany, but it can be an international prevention.
Operation Flow
The large poster in the waiting area and in public places is intended to break the taboo of depressions and invite to discuss – everyone knows one of these.
