Suicides Risk Factors

this project to realized in Power Bi:

Suicide rates vary around the world
Suicide rates vary widely between countries. The map shows this.

For some countries in Southern Africa and Eastern Europe, the estimated rates of suicide are high, with over 15 annual deaths per 100,000 people.

Meanwhile for other countries in Europe, South America and Asia, the estimated rates of suicide are lower, with under 10 annual deaths per 100,000 people.

The wide range in suicide rates around the world is likely the result of many factors. This includes differences in underlying mental health and treatment, personal and financial stress, restrictions on the means of suicide, recognition and awareness of suicide, and other factors.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THIS DATA
Suicide estimates come from death certificate data, using deaths that were classified under death codes for 'intentional self-harm' in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD). This includes people who had self-harmed but had not intended to die, and they may not be considered suicides by the country's particular legal definition.
In many countries, deaths due to self-harm are highly underreported due to social stigma, cultural and legal concerns. Instead, these deaths are often misclassified in reported data, especially as deaths due to "events of undetermined intent", accidents, homicides, or unknown causes. To account for this, the WHO's Global Health Observatory reclassifies a proportion of deaths reported with those causes as suicides, according to the fraction that are estimated to be deaths by suicide. As a result, data on suicide rates represent a better estimate of how many people die from suicide.

Suicides may still be underestimated after this adjustment, especially if they are misclassified as other types of deaths.2 This can also be why some countries appear to have rising suicide rates, if the rates of misclassification decline.
