Grief is an unavoidable and natural process, yet we can still be uncertain, uncomfortable, and cautious in our responses to grief.

‘Showing up for Grief’ is a 3-hour education and learning workshop for community members, and it encourages and promotes a compassionate response to loss based on the best evidence.

‘Showing up for Grief’ is part of a worldwide movement to grow death and grief literacy, and there have been programs run in India, Thailand, the Philippines, and Bangladesh.

Showing Up for Grief is the sister project to the Bereavement Companions Program, developed through an international collaboration between the Institute of Palliative Medicine in Kerala, India, and the Death Literacy Institute in Australia.
