African countries with the highest suicide rates

The World Health Organization announced in a statement that Africa is the continent with the highest suicide rates in the world.

The organization announced that the suicide rate in the world is 9 out of every 100,000 people.

She pointed out that the suicide rate in Africa is 11 people out of every 100,000 people, which is higher than the global average.

She pointed out that there is one psychiatrist for every 500,000 people in Africa, which is 100 times less than the organization’s recommendation.

This is partly due, according to the World Health Organization, to insufficient measures to treat and prevent risk factors, including mental health conditions that currently affect 116 million people, an increase from 53 million in 1990.

The United Nations launched a social media campaign to reach 10 million people across the region with the aim of raising public awareness and mobilizing the support of governments and policy makers to increase focus and funding for mental health programmes, including suicide prevention efforts.
