Death Studies

Death Studies is a multidisciplinary field that explores the social, psychological, cultural, and philosophical aspects of death and dying. It investigates how societies understand and cope with mortality, the grieving process, and end-of-life care. The field aims to deepen our understanding of death’s impact on individuals and communities, promote compassionate practices, and improve support for those facing loss. By examining diverse perspectives and experiences, Death Studies helps inform policies, healthcare, and personal attitudes toward mortality, fostering a more thoughtful and informed approach to one of life's universal experiences.
