On behalf of the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport, Dialogic is investigating the possibilities of making the number 113 free of charge and anonymous. The number 113 has been designated for assistance in the context of suicide prevention since April 2020. This decision was made due to the confusion among the public caused by the prominent use of the numbers 113 in the name of the 113 Suicide Prevention Foundation, combined with the information they provided. Since July 1, 2020, the 113 Suicide Prevention Foundation can be reached via the number 113, as well as the toll-free and anonymous number 0800-0113. Previously, 113 Suicide Prevention was only accessible via the number 0900-0113. The research will outline various scenarios regarding the feasibility and associated (implementation) costs of potentially making the number 113 free of charge and anonymous.
