The ATLANTES Global Observatory of Palliative Care aims to promote in society and in medicine a positive mindset regarding the care of patients with advanced and irreversible illness. 

Through its research and dissemination work, it conveys to the various social agents a vision based on the dignity of the person and professional care. It promotes accompaniment and respect for the natural course of the disease and the integral care of the person, including the emotional and spiritual dimension.

This group is part of the Navarra Health Research Institute (IdiSNa).

Among the priority objectives of the University of Navarra's Strategy 2025 is the promotion of an impactful and focused research . In relation to this line of action, one of the lines of action is Palliative Medicine, through the research carried out in the Observatory. In this way, the University of Navarra seeks to disseminate the positive and highly humane values of palliative care in society and among professionals.
