So, if teasing unnecessary suffering out of the system was our first design cue, then tending to dignity by way of the senses, by way of the body — the aesthetic realm — is design cue number two. Now this gets us quickly to the third and final bit for today; namely, we need to lift our sights, to set our sights on well-being, so that life and health and healthcare can become about making life more wonderful, rather than just less horrible. Beneficence.

Death Literacy for Children
For many of us, our earliest experiences of death set a foundation for how we understand loss. After facilitating conversations on loss with over 500 people, speaking to numerous experts, and delving into research on loss and development, we realized that we wanted to create meaningful tools for children to navigate loss in a caring and authentic way.
Denmark and Bhutan are among the happiest countries in the world and one of their shared characteristics is that they invite death to be a part of life. In Bhutan, the culture suggests that people should think about death five times a day, and in reflecting on death, they can accept it more. In Denmark, parents address death with their children in an empathic and authentic way. Both countries encourage a culture that allows life and death to coexist, thereby creating healthier societies.
Our initiative is comprised of behaviour scientists and designers, supported by renowned experts.
