Death Cafè

Death Cafè

Tuesday 08 Oct

Historic town of Merano (Merano)

18:00 - 20:00

In view of the second edition, in the autumn, of REVOLUTION may death find us alive, a second Death Café to continue the discussion and debate on the last great taboo left in our society, death. Without fixed objectives or themes, in an empathetic and convivial manner. Indeed, more and more scholars are pointing out that cultures in which death has become a taboo are less happy and less free. Certainly a strong statement that nonetheless calls for finding ways and forms to address this issue, or rather this destiny that we all share. This is why we invite you to participate in a circle of confrontation and empathic listening to give us a first-hand opportunity to take a step in getting in touch with the theme of death. With the facilitation of Giorgio Degasperi. A theatrical director and systemically-inspired facilitator, Degasperi has been involved in community development issues over the years from both an artistic and social perspective. The meeting is part of the network of Death Cafés organised at an international level according to the guidelines proposed by the website deathcafe.com, created by the programmer Jon Underwood on the basis of information provided by the Swiss sociologist and anthropologist Bernard Crettaz, who provided the theoretical model for these events.
