The inadequate handling of the suicide phenomenon by state institutions has forced the organization "Lifeline" (organization for the prevention of suicides) to create a petition "For a Kosovo without Suicide", which asks public institutions to address the issue of suicide with urgency and professionalism.

The demands of the suicide prevention petition are to draft a law that regulates suicide prevention services. The law should include psycho-social support, also social programs that can help individuals.

Until now, this organization has reached over 5 thousand signatures, but in order to be sent to the Assembly of Kosovo, it must reach up to 10 thousand.

The director of the "Lifeline" organization and the organizer of the petition "For a Kosovo without Suicide", Bind Skeja asks for cooperation with the media, the police, and schools for the prevention of suicides.

Skeja added that when the number of 10,000 signatures is reached, the petition will be submitted to the Assembly of Kosovo.

Also, Skeja emphasized that awareness campaigns are offered in vain when the person with such thoughts has nowhere to turn.

At the moment, the only service available in Kosovo for suicide prevention is the "Lifeline".

For all those citizens who are interested in signing the petition, the petition continues every day in Prishtina, Prizren, Peja and Gjakova. /A. Shala/
