In partnership with the Australian Institute for Suicide Research and Prevention and the World Health Organisation (WHO) Collaborating Centre for Research and Training in Suicide Prevention, Defence has commenced a research activity to determine the risk and protective factors for suicidal behaviours in a military setting.

The research will lead to the development of a framework to assess risk and protective factors for suicidal behaviours in Defence. The framework will be delivered in January 2025.
