Kosovo does not currently host a channel that provides real-time telephone counseling for mental health, so a local NGO is working to establish volunteer services for suicide prevention. Although statistics show that , data from the Kosovo Police confirms a significant increase in suicide attempts in Kosovo in the past 14 years. From 2001 to 2003, there were less than 100 reported suicide attempts per year; however, between 2004 and 2017, they increased to over 200 annually, peaking at 372 in 2010. Bind Skeja, co-founder of the Center for Social Information and Improvement, QIPS, was struck when he found out about the lack of a hotline in Kosovo. This urged him to work towards establishing one in the country. Skeja, who graduated in experimental psychology from the University of York, said that QIPS is working together with the War Trauma Foundation, a Netherlands-based NGO, and that their biggest present challenge is funding. Skeja hopes that the hotline will become operational this year. And all calls will be fully anonymous. Our country lacks an established system that offers intensive care to people who attempt suicide or suffer from mental health issues. Aliriza Arenliu The hotline will be staffed by volunteers — most likely students, because Skeja believes that this would be a good opportunity for them to learn new skills. However, he said that everybody who is willing to help can become a trained volunteer. Later on, they also plan to include counselling in other languages. Bind Skeja at the QIPS office. Aliriza Arenliu, a professor of psychology at the University of Prishtina whose PhD research focused on suicides attempts, said that Kosovo does have a relatively low suicide rate compared to the rest of the Balkans, yet domestic statistics show that the number of attempted suicides has risen. Now it is around three. Arenliu said that people who attempt suicide are not attended to adequately in the current healthcare system. Any initiative that tries to help people who are in that situation is beneficial. Vigan Behluli, a psychology graduate who co-founded the hotline through the Kosovar Association of Psychology Students, KOAPS, said that their initiative was necessary. It may be true that people and youth in Kosovo are living without essential things, but if we are talking about a more integrated system of offering well-being regarding mental health, it is one of the key components that society owes its citizens. Discussing suicide is still a taboo in Kosovo, and many people who talk about it are uninformed. Skeja said that whether or not the hotline becomes operational this year depends on if sufficient funds are raised. Skeja said that the hotline, apart from its primary purpose, will help weaken preconceptions about suicide among people.
