There are many forces that differentiate us in the world: politics, religion, beliefs to name only a few. One thing that unites us is the desire to die with dignity. As a result of these forces not all of us have the opportunity to do so, yet a great many fight to make a death with dignity possible for themselves and those they love. It is these people that we would like to put in the spotlight this World Right to Die Day 2022: the Champions, who through their support, activism, fighting, writing, willpower, vision and strength, are advocating to make right to die legislation possible all over the world.

The World of Champions tells the stories of the parents, siblings, activists, doctors, supporters, volunteers who are working to make dying with dignity possible from all the corners of the earth; a testimony of their struggle and the complexities they face in championing the right to die with dignity.
