The JCBeCARE International Conference - Towards 2030: The Practitioner-Researcher Collaborated Bereavement Care – aims to facilitate the collaboration of social and healthcare professionals through integrating research findings in bereavement care.
As we approach the next decade, the importance in collaboration between practitioners and researchers to shape future care for people experiencing loss is more apparent than ever. As practitioners provide support and guidance to individuals navigating grief, establishing partnership with researchers can promote enhancing bereavement care through evidence-based practices and their innovative approaches. By taking the first step in strengthening the collaborative relationship between both parties, we strive towards holistic and effective approaches in supporting individuals experiencing bereavement.
The Conference aims to provide a platform for forging new connections, starting meaningful discussions and guiding explorations of practices both old and new, to initiate improvements in bereavement care. With great strides made in exploring multiple areas of bereavement, such as public health approach in bereavement care, assessments and practices, disenfranchised grief, spirituality in bereavement and more, it is a golden opportunity to share insights and promote better understanding and execution of bereavement care.
Join us in our journey where practitioners and researchers unite and catapult us into the era of collaborative bereavement care. Together, let us pave the way for building a more compassionate community that offers care to individuals in their time of need.
