Feb 19
Vital Death Cafe
The Vital Death Café is envisioned as a human space for collective reflection on the human experience, grounded in the recognition of our inherent mortality. It is an invitation to gather in authentic encounters with others who feel the need to share questions, concerns, and visions about what it means to live—and die—with dignity. It offers a space to rediscover our shared humanity through the mutual practice of trusted vulnerability.
We invite anyone who feels called or moved by the questions and themes explored in this TOGETHERNESS section.
January 8: Encounter with Death and Mortality. Death Experiences.
January 22: Understanding Suicide: Silence, Stigma, and Stories
February 5: Medical Assistance in Dying: Ethics and Experiences
