World Hospice and Palliative Care Day - India

To celebrate World Hospice and Palliative Care Day on October 11, 2008, CanSupport will hold a full day workshop together with the Foundation of Universal Responsibility of HH The Dalai Lama in New Delhi, India

The title of the workshop is "Finding Meaning from Life in the Face of Death'. Speakers will range from the religious to the secular and will include practitioners of hospice and palliative care. The purpose is to start a dialogue that will begin the process of evolving toolkits, rooted in different religious and secular traditions, so as to help people deal with the spiritual and existential crises that they experience at the end of life.

The workshop will be followed by an evening outdoor concert at the India International Centre which will be open to the public and will include healing music from diverese religious traditions in India.
