A University of British Columbia study has provided a unique window into the worlds of 25 young men as they struggle to find ways to grieve their male friends. Live for the Moment is an exhibition at The Fall Gallery in Vancouver, B.C. featuring photos taken by research participants to answer questions about grief, loss and dealing with it as a man.
This Canadian Institute of Health Research funded study was conducted by a team of researchers from the UBC School of Nursing and UBC Dept. of Education, including Creighton, Prof. Elizabeth Saewyc, Prof. John Oliffe, Assoc. Prof. Shauna Butterwick and Project Coordinator Jennifer Matthews.
