Aims & Scope

The aim of Bereavement: journal of grief and responses to death is to improve understanding of grief, bereavement and responses to death in all their aspects and to enhance the quality of support provided to bereaved people.

We publish leading new research and theory alongside articles describing the best current practices and innovations in service delivery and diverse forms of support, as appropriate for particular contexts and communities.

Bereavement invites contributions that discuss the contexts of death and bereavement within communities and societies around the world, and encourages dialogue about bereavement and responses to death from a wide perspective and across multiple disciplines.

We recognise that different communities, cultures and religion deal with and view bereavement and grief differently.

Some groups of people are subject to systematic discrimination and that affects their grieving.

Experiences of the aftermath of death may encompass a broad range of issues beyond individualised grief and be represented by a variety of terms.

The journal aims to be a diverse, inclusive, internationally relevant space, inviting critical reflection on key issues within bereavement research and practice and the aftermath of death across time and space.
