To celebrate the first of the Australian Death Studies Society Work-in-Progress Seminars, our Committee Chair/ President, Dr Hannah Gould (University of Melbourne) will present research conducted for “Competing Ontologies of Soil in Alternative Body Disposal Practices” (co-authored by the DeathTech Research Team). Dr Eline Schotsmans (University of Wollongong/University of Bordeaux) will provide a response before opening to more general discussion from our members.

A chance for members to discuss and receive feedback on evolving projects and research outputs from a friendly, interdisciplinary audience of death studies scholars.
