Research, Evaluation & Impact 

Measuring what matters

The Death Literacy Institute works with governments, health services and communities to design, implement and evaluate public health palliative care initiatives. 

Our evaluation work combines quantitative measurement, participatory research and practice-based evaluation. 

• Partnership with La Trobe University Public Health Palliative Care Unit - our new death literacy platform will launch soon.

• SESLHD - Our work with SESLHD includes running workshops and supporting research and evaluation of the BEACON project, which is a ground-breaking Public Health Palliative Care program.

• Tender Funerals Australia – we work with Tender on evaluation and impact.

• Central and Eastern Sydney PHN to deliver Death Literacy education, which was part of the Greater Choices program. You can read the baseline and mid reports of the Greater Choices program HERE. These contain a number of projects using the death literacy framework and the Death Literacy Index.
