The importance of yellow march
Every year, Suicide remains one of the main causes of mortality in Spain, A public health problem that often faces silence and stigma. The latest INE data (2023), collected by him Suicide Observatory of the Spanish Foundation for Suicide Prevention, They show that in Spain they died 4.227 people for suicide, which is an average of more than 11 deaths every day. Besides, It is estimated that for each death there are more than 20 attempts, What multiplies the impact on whole families and communities. These figures confirm that prevention cannot wait and that we need more resources, More listening and more collective commitment. It is important to point out that, Although Spain still does not count on a Specific state plan for suicide prevention, We can already say that it is in the process of elaboration by the Ministry of Health and it is expected to have it throughout 2025. The approval of this plan will involve a decisive step to coordinate the autonomous communities, establish stable financing and give continuity to preventive actions.
The yellow march was born with the aim of breaking that taboo, generate social awareness and offer a space to listen and accompany those who live with pain or duel.
