This project aims to investigate experiences of death, dying and bereavement amidst rapid social, economic and political transformation. In the wake of COVID19, and as Australia’s anticipated ‘death boom’ approaches, how to foster good deaths has never been more uncertain, nor more urgent. Drawing on innovative methods and socio-cultural theory, and working in partnership with families and communities, this project aims to generate new knowledge to better inform and improve policy and spark cultural renewal around the end of life. Expected outcomes include setting the international benchmark for novel scholarly understandings of death, dying and bereavement, and centring community voices in addressing contemporary challenges to dying well.

这个项目旨在调查在社会、经济和政治迅速转型中死亡、垂死和丧亲的经历。在COVID 19之后，随着澳大利亚预期的“死亡潮”的临近，如何促进良好的死亡从未如此不确定，也从未如此紧迫。该项目利用创新方法和社会文化理论，并与家庭和社区合作，旨在产生新的知识，以更好地为政策提供信息和改进政策，并在生命结束时激发文化复兴。预期成果包括为死亡、垂死和丧亲之痛的新颖学术理解设定国际基准，并集中社区的声音，以应对当代的死亡挑战。
