Abstract
The global expansion of the modern hospice movement has been fast and impressive, and in developing countries this phenomenon has also been registered, despite the structural and operational difficulties of their health systems. This article will address the scenario of palliative and hospice care in Brazil, pointing to the challenges and difficulties for the implementation of this comprehensive programme within its health system.

This is the second time I have submitted a paper to Palliative Care: Research and Treatment for possible publication. In both instances, my experience with Libertas Academica was very good from submission to acceptance. The peer reviewers' comments were insightful, very constructive, and extremely helpful. The author interface was user-friendly. The publishing process was fast and convenient. I highly recommend this journal.
