Around All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day, society tends to focus more intently on the themes of dying, death and bereavement. This also brings the big, and often unanswerable, questions of life into sharp focus. Philosophical Practice offers a special space for these questions – and for people who wish to discuss them. This is demonstrated by the three-year research project “Philosophical Practice in Palliative Care and Hospice Work”, which is based at CIRAC and Campus Wien University of Applied Sciences.
Patrick Schuchter, the project leader, appeared twice on well-known Austrian media programmes to discuss this:
- The interview on the ORF 2 programme *Aktuell nach eins* is still available in the ORF media library until 2 November 2026.
- The interview with the *Kronen Zeitung* can be found online and in the Vienna edition dated 1 November 2026.
