In 2021, the European Union recorded 47,346 deaths by suicide, a 13% decrease from 2011. Greece had one of the lowest suicide rates in the EU, with 4.2 deaths per 100,000 people, just above Cyprus at 2.7. Men accounted for the majority of suicides, and most cases were observed in the 45-64 age group. These findings are highlighted in recognition of World Suicide Prevention Day.
