Popis: The nine-cell bereavement tool was originally developed to provide appropriate training in a culturally diverse environment Croups of trainees complete a table exploring their personal and professional bereavement experiences. Through looking at their feelings over time in relation to with what is socially acceptable, and comparing their real needs with the kinds of support offered in their communities, participants can themselves develop strategies to help bereaved people more effectively and raise bereavement awareness locally. During 2002–2006 this tool was used in India, Kenya, Zimbabwe and South Africa and, in the process, was expanded and modified, and some assessments carried out.
