Stichting Dignitas

Stichting Dignitas is a Swiss-based organization that provides assisted dying services to willing individuals, primarily those facing incurable and terminal illnesses. Established in 1998, it offers a legal and regulated pathway for adults to end their suffering with dignity, following strict guidelines and assessments. While it is not a suicide organization, Dignitas aims to support personal autonomy and end-of-life choices in a safe, compassionate manner within Swiss law. The organization operates independently and ethically, ensuring informed consent and professional medical oversight throughout the process.
