Yellow September (“Setembro Amarelo” in Portuguese) is an
awareness campaign for preventing suicide, whose goal is to
alert the population about the reality of suicide in Brazil and
all over the world, as well as how to prevent it. It takes place
every September, since 2014, through the identification of
public and private places in yellow color and a wide
dissemination of information about the subject.
Since 2014, the Brazilian Association of Psychiatry - BAP,
in partnership with the Federal Council of Medicine - FCM,
nationally organizes the Yellow September® campaign, as a
prevention against the evils of suicide. World Suicide Prevention
Day, 2022, is the 10th of this month, officially.
Yellow is the colour of optimism, glory, sunshine, and happiness.
It stands for freshness, positivity, intellect and joy.
