In short

Artevelde University works with Amfora to find out how technology can support the writing of end-of-life stories. The aim? Stories that help people reflect and say goodbye.

Need and relevance

Talking about the end of life is often hard. Amfora offers people the chance to share their story in a handmade booklet. This takes time and effort from writers and volunteers. Technology can ease this process and improve the quality of the stories.

From approach to impact

The research creates a first framework for using artificial intelligence in warm, human-centred care. We map the steps in the writing process, explore digital tools such as speech-to-text, listen to writers’ expectations and concerns, and collect good practices. This provides a clear basis for integrating technology in a respectful and meaningful way.
