Suicide prevention action plan 2026 - 2029: equality impact assessment
Equality impact assessment (EQIA) for Creating Hope Together: Scotland’s suicide prevention action plan (2026 to 2029).
Recommendations and Conclusion
The EQIA has not identified any negative impacts on protected groups likely to result from the publication of the new action plan.
We will continue to engage with equality groups and take account of emerging evidence for suicide prevention during implementation of the action plan. We will continue to consider Equalities & Human Rights as individual actions are scoped, designed and delivered.
The action plan document will be refreshed in 3 years, at which time this EQIA should be reviewed to ensure it reflects all available emerging evidence.
