Sponsor's own description

A cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a program based on information and communication technologies (ICT) will be conducted to prevent suicide and strengthen mental health among secondary school students in Chile. The program utilizes a web-based platform and a mobile application to cultivate a virtual community to promote mental health protective factors, such as self-esteem and self-expression, and reduce suicide risk. It is based on the principles of peer-support and inclusivity, and it has been inspired by previous studies in Europe and the US. The trial will take place in six public secondary schools in two cities of Chile: Santiago and Rancagua. Schools will be randomly assigned to either intervention or control conditions. Assessment will be conducted at baseline, 3-month (post intervention), and at 5-months (2 month follow-up).
