Death before birth: An encounter between Prenatal Pedagogy and the Pedagogy of Death.

Prenatal death is shrouded in silences. One such silence is in education. The main objective of this essay is to approach the study of prenatal death from the point of view that pedagogy can and should contribute to the family, educational, health, and social spheres.

"Mum, when we die, what do you think happens?" A qualitative study of views on death education among Spanish families.

We developed a study to determine perceptions of death education among parents of Spanish schoolchildren aged 3-18 years. We used a qualitative approach, using focus groups and interviews in six state schools. Notable findings were death-related issues are of interest to families, parents recognized the educational potential of teaching death issues, and they called for training in the Pedagogy of Death for both themselves and teachers.
