South Africa ranks 10th globally for suicide rates, with an estimated national average of 23.5 deaths per 100,000 people. According to public health tracking data, out of 13,774 annual suicides recorded in the country, 10,861 were men, and 2,913 were women. This represents a male suicide rate of nearly 38 per 100,000 people, compared to approximately 10 per 100,000 for women. We are joined in conversation with Puleng Sirengqe who is a speaker, facilitator, international certified life coach as we explore what does a healthy community look like for men? How do men move beyond simply having people around them to actually building relationships where they can be honest, supported and vulnerable?
