The Ariodante Fabretti Foundation, a research and documentation centre on Death, was established in 1999, taking the place of the previous Centre of Studies of the same name, which had been founded in 1992 following an initiative of the Turin Cremation Society. Its charter members were the University, the Municipality and the Province of Turin, the Turin Cremation Society (Socrem), and the Region of Piedmont. The Foundation's objective is to become a reference point for all those who are interested in death and related topics through research facilities, highly qualified researchers and interdisciplinary Committee.
