How We Die: A cross-cultural exploration of dying
Ireland, The Netherlands, India, Botswana
During the year I will look at cultural approaches to death and end-of-life care around the world. I will travel to Ireland, the Netherlands, India and Botswana to interview medical professionals, patients, family members and clergy about their thoughts on the questions and the process of dying, with an emphasis on how people make their choices.
