Asimismo, se destacará su origen multicausal y la relevancia del estudio de los factores de riesgo y protectores, así como de las diferentes estrategias para contrarrestarlos y promover la prevención. Por último, se hará referencia a la importancia de la figura del trabajador y trabajadora social dentro de la prevención del suicidio y de las conductas suicidas, aportando una base de estudio biopsicosocial, lo que asegura un mayor éxito para contrarrestar y prevenir dichas conductas. A lo largo de este trabajo, de forma transversal, se resaltará el Trabajo Social como disciplina esencial a la hora de abordar el proceso suicida
