  Suicidal behaviour is still criminalised by law in Ghana.In this study we investigated how Ghanaian psychology students view this law.Data were collected in connection with a one-day workshop on suicide prevention.The main focus of this workshop was on attitudes towards suicidal behaviour.We presented some of the results from our research on this among psychology students in Ghana as well as in Uganda and Norway and the students then discussed these results in groups and plenary sessions.
