What is a 'Deathwalker'?
The term ‘Deathwalker’ was first coined by Zenith Virago, founder of the Natural Death Care Centre in Australia. A Deathwalker is a person who walks the journey towards their own death as openly, courageously and as best they can. They’re also available to walk with someone else on their journey towards death, to walk with those who are supporting someone else who is dying and to walk with those who are grieving, offering guidance and care to inform and empower them.
Kerry Sunderland completed the inaugural Deathwalker Training in 2014 and brought Zenith Virago to the South Island of New Zealand to conduct the first DWT in Aotearoa in early 2016.
