The Centre for Pesticide Suicide Prevention (CPSP) works to reduce the number of pesticide suicides worldwide.
Our work aims to identify lethal pesticides responsible for deaths and end their use through regulatory action. We work in low and middle-income countries, where pesticide self-poisoning is a recognised and significant health problem, in collaboration with national policy-makers.
We are a philanthropically funded research and policy initiative within the University of Edinburgh. The centre was launched in September 2017 with support from an Incubator Grant of the Open Philanthropy Project Fund, on the recommendation of GiveWell, USA.
