As of the end of 2022, DIGNITAS counted 11,856 members. Individuals who become members of DIGNITAS do not usually do so because they want to die but because they want to support the broad activities of the association and to have the safety of choice. Less than 3% of all DIGNITAS members make use of an accompanied suicide; 206 individuals in 2022.
In recent years, less than 50% of all DIGNITAS members whose request for an accompanied
suicide was assessed by a Swiss physician independent of DIGNITAS actually chose to make use of their “last human right”.
