Globalizing Palliative Care

UvA-DARE (University of Amsterdam)

Abstract

How is palliative care implemented and practised in diverse cultural contexts? A new ERC-funded anthropological research project explores how palliative care changes end-of-life care in Brazil, India, and Indonesia – and what these local experiences mean to global models for palliative care. Dr Annemarie Samuels, Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology, Leiden University, and Dr Natashe Lemos Dekker, Postdoctoral Researcher, Institute of Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology, Leiden University, The Netherlands, explain more and welcome your input.
