Free, multilingual, and easy to understand

Clarvia is being designed for families in Luxembourg in all their diversity.

  • Luxembourg residents and international families
  • families who speak different languages
  • people with limited financial means
  • people without a strong support network
  • cross-border families managing responsibilities from abroad
  • people unfamiliar with Luxembourg's administrative system

Our aim is to give every family a clearer path through the first administrative steps after a loss - not only those who already know where to look or whom to call.

A public-interest project

Clarvia is being built to make practical post-bereavement guidance easier to access in Luxembourg.

The project is free, multilingual, and designed for people who may not know the local system, speak the main administrative languages, have financial means, or have a strong personal network.

Clarvia is not a substitute for public authorities or qualified professionals. It is a bridge: helping families understand official information, prepare better questions, and find the right support when they need it.

Built with care

⚖️

Equal access

Bereavement guidance should be available regardless of background, status, language, income, or personal network.

💡

Clarity

Families need practical steps, not another maze of information.

🤍

Dignity

The person who has passed away should not disappear behind paperwork.

🛡️

Safety

Clarvia must be clear about its limits and guide families toward qualified professionals when needed.

🔒

Privacy

Bereavement information is sensitive. The service must collect as little as possible and protect what families choose to share.

🌍

Multilingual

Designed from the start in English, French, and German to reflect Luxembourg's multilingual reality.
